KYLIAN MBAPPE sparked a 60-man brawl after Paris Saint-Germain knocked Barcelona out of the Champions League, according to reports.
The French giants ran out 6-4 aggregate winners thanks to a 4-1 win over Barcelona in the second leg on Tuesday, with Mbappe scoring twice.
And reports in Spain have now revealed things got heated after the final whistle.
According to Mundo Deportivo, PSG players left the pitch at Barcelona’s temporary home of the Olympic Stadium in an excited manner and made no attempts to hide it, to the annoyance of some Barcelona stars.
But when Mbappe, 25, entered the tunnel the tension boiled over.
The Frenchman is said to have entered the tunnel to head to the dressing room shouting and celebrating in a “vindictive way” with some team-mates.
Mbappe, who is fluent in Spanish, is then alleged to have said: “This is football and it is on the field where we have to talk.”
His comments enraged more than one Barca star as they believed him to be addressing them.
This then led to a confrontation with insults and shouting as a shoving match ensued, with players and staff involved as security personnel tried to defuse the situation.
The report says there were more than 60 people in the crowd.

Fortunately, the report adds that no physical damage or injury was inflicted on anyone.
It’s also been claimed Mbappe made a provocative gesture towards Barca fans as he left the pitch, shouting “let’s go” in French.
Mbappe has confirmed he will be leaving PSG when his contract expires in the summer, with Barcelona’s rivals Real Madrid believed to be his next destination on a free transfer.
PSG will face Borussia Dortmund in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich will compete in the other semi-final after defeating Manchester City and Arsenal respectively.
