What an evening! Paris Saint-Germain obtained its qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League at the end of the suspense. Parisians had to go to the penalty shots to overcome the Reds after their advantage of 1-0 at the end of regulation time, then extensions. Thanks to an excellent donnarumma and inspired shooters, PSG therefore advances in competition and above all, sends a very strong message to Europe by winning in front of the team that many considered the best of Europe so far. While waiting to know if the Parisians will face Aston Villa or Bruges in quarters – the English won 3-1 on the outward journey – the troops of Luis Enrique will be able to savor this passage overall more than deserved on all two games. A first leg of the quarters for which there will still be an absent brand: Marquinhos, who was under a suspension and received a yellow at the start of the second period after a fault on Luis Diaz.

At the final whistle, the Parisian spoke in front of the cameras of Canal+. “Containing yourself on the key is very difflicle!” In the field you can do things. But it shows the value of the team. We made a big match, we deserve qualification on the two confrontations, there is no photo. We really deserved. March 11, it was Chelsea, it was Dortmund »he launched first, in reference to previous qualifications which also fell on March 11. “It's a special day for us. Come and win here with a very young team. The coach, the staff, everyone does a great job. I am very happy. We have no limits, we must not stop there. It was just an 8th finals, there are still a lot of work. You have to recover and think about the next match against OM ”concluded the Brazilian central defender, optimistic for the rest of the season. OM is warned.
