PSG delivered a new masterclass on Tuesday against Aston Villa. A month after having stunned Liverpool in the round of 16, the capital's club left no respite to Aston Villa, logically winning it (3-1) during their first round of their quarterfinals and thus taking a serious option on the qualification for the last square.
Author of the opening of the score for the villans, Morgan Rogers was not praised about the Parisians after the match.
“It's hard to face all these waves. They had already shown it on previous matches. I think they said to the whole world how good they are ”he told TNT's microphone.
And the English striker was not the only one to be impressed. It was the same with Unai Emery, the coach of Aston Villa. “They are the favorites, they have a lot of quality on their combination, it was complicated to stop them, it is a team cut for victory at the high level”, Did he blow at a press conference.
Favorite PSG to win the C1
The impression was the same among analysts. Witness the remarks made by Rio Ferdinand, the former defender of Manchester United. “We were blown away by the goals we saw and by the moments of technique and genius of PSG players, but I was just as impressed, if not more, by their ability to recover the ball and reconquer it”, he launched on the TNT set.
And the former Mancunian was so much bluffed that he made PSG his favorite to the final victory. “They have played with the authority of a team that has already won this tournament on numerous occasions, but this is not the case. It looks like it is a team who knows how to get the best of each player individually and that really dominates opposing players: man to man, but also as a collective. I consider them as favorites at present, he said. In view of the way I saw them mismanne Liverpool on two games, and the one I saw them dominate this match here. »»
