Press review: Liverpool/PSG in the semi-final, Pacho and Neves | OneFootball

This Tuesday, April 14, the French press (from a sporting perspective) focused, on the Paris Saint-Germain side, on tonight’s Champions League quarter-final second leg against Liverpool at Anfield (kick-off at 9 p.m., live on Canal+) following the 2-0 win in the first leg.

PSG of course have the weapons to qualify, as they showed last season and in the first-leg win. It would be quite crazy not to be confident going into this second leg. However, the Parisians also know very well that they must remain humble before another match against a top club and on its home turf. Liverpool will not go down without a fight, and a major battle for a place in the semi-finals is to be expected.

Coach Luis Enrique repeated as early as the first leg that this return match will be difficult, that they will have to “suffer.” That does not stop the coach and his players from being confident. They are sure of their strengths and will play to win. That is certain. What remains is to “enjoy it,” as the Spaniard often points out. All while knowing that victory is never guaranteed in advance.

At the very least, Paris knows it can rely on the exceptional Pacho and Neves. The first, who always appears calm, is impressive in his aggression while committing very few fouls. The second never stops, while still being able to maintain great quality in his play. They are two superb signings for PSG, even though the transfers had been criticized during the summer of 2024.
