Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 grabbed attention on social media moments after helping Paris Saint-Germain F.C. book their place in the UEFA Champions League final with a dramatic semi-final victory over FC Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n
The French winger scored PSG\u2019s only goal in the 1-1 second-leg draw at Allianz Arena on Wednesday night. The result sealed a 6-5 aggregate win for the French giants and secured back-to-back Champions League final appearances for the club.<\/p>\n
Soon after the final whistle, Dembele posted an old viral clip of Gavi on Instagram. In the video, the FC Barcelona midfielder says: \u201cA lot of people think I don\u2019t know how to play football, but they haven\u2019t got the slightest f*cking clue.\u201d<\/p>\n
The post quickly went viral across social media platforms, with many fans interpreting it as Dembele\u2019s response to criticism he has faced throughout his career regarding consistency and decision-making in big matches.<\/p>\n
Dembele delivered when it mattered most for PSG. His goal gave the visitors a two-goal cushion in the tie and looked enough to comfortably finish the contest before Harry Kane scored a dramatic 93rd-minute equaliser on the night.<\/p>\n
Despite Bayern\u2019s late push, PSG held firm to progress to another European final as Dembele once again played a decisive role in the knockout stages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
