By Julien Pretot PARIS, April 15 (Reuters) - Paris St Germain coach Laurent Blanc was left to rue the absence of key players after the French champions were humbled 3-1 at home by Barcelona in their Champions League quarter-final first leg on Wednesday. PSG were without suspended striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Italian midfielder Marco Verratti, who was sorely missed along with the injured Thiago Motta as PSG suffered their first home defeat in a European game since 2006. The Parisians were also quickly deprived of centre back Thiago Silva, who was substituted in the 21st minute by fellow Brazilian David Luiz with a hamstring injury.
