“I saw the Liverpool match in Manchester City (2-0) and it is true that it is very strong. The Reds give off a lot of talent and mastery and have a huge player, Mohamed Salah, very difficult to master. Parisians will not have to go too much back, as they did in Lyon at the end of the match. The key will be to prevent their opponent from coming out well and making a minimum of errors. But I believe: PSG has the workforce to achieve two major performances against Liverpool ”analyzed the Andalusian for The team
