Joe Hart says Manchester City are "making history" after grabbing two crucial away goals in their Champions League quarter-final first-leg against Paris Saint-Germain.

Strikes from Kevin de Bruyne and Fernandinho earned a 2-2 draw in an enthralling match at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday.

Hart saved an early penalty from Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who made it 1-1 after a mistake from Fernando, before Adrien Rabiot put PSG ahead on the hour.

Fernandinho levelled on 72 minutes and Hart said: "It was a crazy game that we were fully involved in.

"Two away goals is great, hopefully we make them count. It was a good game of football and we will wait and see how good a result that is.

City's blend of beauty and blunder continued in Paris...

"We are making history for this club and we don't want it to end."

Ibrahimovic's first-half equaliser was the result of sloppy mistake by Fernando, whose pass deflected off the Sweden international and into an empty net, and Hart says they need to stop giving away soft goals.

"I've given Fernando the ball and he obviously thought there was an option to pass inside and the big man put his size 15s on it and it went in," Hart said.

"We've got goalscorers and we just need to improve as a team, and keep goals out at our end. We shore it up a little bit more, in an ideal world."
