📷 Nightmare start for the stoppers in UCL quarter-finals 😲

A couple of goalkeeping errors have led to early goals in Aston Villa vs PSG and Barcelona vs Borussia Dortmund in Tuesday's Champions League ties.

Villa needed an early goal to kick start a potential comeback from 3-1 down against PSG but Emiliano Martínez fumbled a cross straight to Achraf Hakimi, who fired into the net.

Almost simultaneously, Barcelona's Wojciech Szczęsny rushed out and fouled Pascal Groß, allowing Serhou Guirassy to finish a classy paneka from the penalty spot as Dortmund reduced the aggregate deficit to 4-1

Game on in Dortmund? Serhou Guirassy scores from the spot to reduce the aggregate deficit to three goals. Only Nicolás Otamendi (6) and Pepe (5) have conceded more penalties in #UCL history than Wojciech Szczesny (4). https://t.co/EI40WmP9Fp

The two keepers were one-time teammates at Arsenal, which only adds to things, with the Gunners in action tomorrow.

How will these errors impact the remainder of the UCL action this evening?
