The France international's whipped cross helped Gonçalo Ramos level the scores in added time and he confidently converted Paris' third penalty in the ensuing shootout.
"He spearheaded the Paris forward line superbly, which was just what his side needed after going 2-0 down," said the UEFA Technical Observer Group. "He instigated the stunning comeback, providing a great assist for the equaliser that ensured Paris took it to the penalty shoot-out."
