Paris Saint-Germain will have to achieve a feat to qualify in the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Beaten in the last moments by Liverpool, who made a heist at the Parc des Princes (1-0), the Parisians will have to win on the lawn of Anfield after this result of the first leg.
And UEFA has just announced the name of the referee designated for this shock. It was the Romanian Istvan Kovacs who will direct the game, he was already present during the big victory in Barcelona, in the quarter-final return of the last edition (4-1). He had notably expelled Ronald Araujo at the start of the game, for a fault on Bradley Barcola. Arbitration will be scrutinized closely, after a similar action that occurred between Ibrahima Konaté and still Bradley Barcola in the first leg.
