Liverpool/PSG – PSG player ratings, heroes at Anfield | OneFootball

This Tuesday, in the second leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League quarter-finals, Paris Saint-Germain faced Liverpool at Anfield. After a match in which the Rouge et Bleu had to fight hard, they won 0-2 (Liverpool/PSG highlights, 0-4 on aggregate). Here are our ratings for the Parisians.

Goalkeeper –

Matvey Safonov (8) – A few very fine saves and some reassuring aerial claims. He could have been a bit more “careful” with his distribution by looking less for attacking play, but that may have been the instruction.

Defenders –

Achraf Hakimi (5.5) – He was mainly busy defensively, which is not really his usual role, and without being especially dominant. Still, it was not a bad match either.

Marquinhos (7) -He had to battle, but the Parisian captain stepped up. In particular with a sliding tackle in the first half that prevented the 1-0.

Willian Pacho (7.5) – Good thing he was there to rescue situations when PSG were under pressure. His composure and aggression were valuable.

Nuno Mendes (6) – Very solid in both his defensive and attacking contribution, but he had to come off in the 39th minute because of a muscle issue. Replaced by Lucas Hernandez (5.5). A lot of defensive work to do, and he was not really seen much on the ball.

Midfielders –

Joao Neves (7.5) – A huge performance from João Neves, one of the few Parisians who still stood out during the difficult spell. He made countless defensive interventions and helped a lot in giving the team moments to breathe.

Vitinha (6) – He shone in the first half before fading in the second.

Warren Zaïre-Emery (6) – Valuable in the battle, a bit less so in his use of the ball. Replaced by Lucas Beraldo in the 81st minute. Hard to rate ten minutes; he tried some nice passes but lacked a bit of accuracy.

Forwards –

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (4) – A rather good first half, but he then struggled badly, giving the ball away many times. Still, he provided the assist for Ousmane Dembélé on the opening goal.

Ousmane Dembélé (7) – A difficult match in a PSG side that was not always in control, but he never stopped working and, above all, scored a fine goal that did a world of good. Then he added a brace late in the match.

Désiré Doué (4) – A difficult evening for Doué, who had to battle hard to get out of the press. He put in a lot of effort and went off injured in the 53rd minute just as he seemed to be improving. Replaced by Bradley Barcola (6). He tried to make runs in behind but was not picked out much. Hard to really judge him. He provided the assist for the second goal.

Coach –

Luis Enrique (7) – We had hoped for a PSG side with more control, but the level of the opponent also has to be respected. Winning at Anfield is no small feat. His team managed to hold firm, dominated at times, and could have made themselves more “comfortable” in the first half.
