Paris Saint-Germain forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic has praised his side after their Champions League win over Bayer Leverkusen.

The French champions eased to a 4-0 win in the first leg of their last 16 tie, with Ibrahimovic twice finding the back of the net.

"We had a good game. We scored early and when you are in the lead it is much easier," UEFA.com quotes him as saying.

"In addition the second and third goals came in the first period and in the second period we continued to play our game. This was a really good evening."

Ibrahimovic is the top goalscorer in this year's Champions League with 10 goals.
