PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino admits he can't sleep after their Champions League collapse at Real Madrid.

PSG were 2-0 up in the last-16 tie with just under half-an-hour to play at Real Madrid before a stunning Karim Benzema hat-trick inside 18 minutes turned the tie on its head.

"How do I feel? It p***** me off," said Pochettino.

"It p***** me off because if you break it down, for the first leg and 60 minutes of the second leg, the team were superior. Maybe we deserved to lead by more goals and the way in which it was taken from us, it really p***** me off – excuse my language."

"It leaves a really painful mark and it's hard to move on," he continued. "I'm angry, tired… It's hard to sleep at night but we have a responsibility to continue.

"As for the future, what will be will be. We play to compete and to win. It's a hard blow to take but we have to keep a calm head now."
