UEFA has opened an investigation against Paris St-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sporting director Leonardo for confronting officials.

PSG crashed out of this season UEFA Champions League on 3-2 aggregates after going two goals ahead against Real Madrid.

Al-Khelaifi and Leonardo were in among the spectators at the Santiago Bernabeu and reportedly approached Dutch referee Danny Makkelie after the game.

The referee in his match reported included that the duo blocked the door of his dressing room.

European football’s governing body will consider its “general principles of conduct” as well as “incorrect behaviour of players and officials”.

After the game, PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino said Real Madrid’s first goal – which came in the 61st minute with the French side 1-0 up on the night – created a feeling of “injustice”.

Pochettino felt goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was fouled in the build-up.

Karim Benzema applied the finish to get Madrid back into the tie and the French striker scored two further goals in the following 17 minutes to send his side through to the quarter-finals.
