PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain defender Presnel Kimpembe says complacency was to blame for the French champions' shock home defeat to Manchester United that saw them eliminated from the Champions League on Wednesday.

United pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history after Marcus Rashford converted a last-gasp VAR penalty to seal a 3-1 win in Paris that sent the English side into the quarter-finals on away goals.
