PSG/Liverpool – Fans pick PSG’s best player | OneFootball

On Wednesday at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain won the first leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League quarter-finals (return leg on April 14) against Liverpool by a score of 2-0 (PSG/Liverpool highlights). We then asked our readers, as we now do after every match, to vote for the best Parisian player of the game. Warren Zaïre-Emery (20-year-old midfielder) came out on top.

A great win for the Paris academy product, a long way from his difficult spell and the doubts many had raised. Zaïre-Emery never gave up and has returned to his best. He has even improved in his use of the ball.

It should be noted, however, that such a clear success was not necessarily expected. Several other Parisians were impressive in this match within a strong collective display. Here, there were notably no votes for João Neves (21-year-old midfielder), Nuno Mendes (23-year-old left-back) or Willian Pacho (24-year-old defender). Vitinha (26-year-old midfielder), who controlled the midfield, received only 3%.

This also highlights the special performances of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (25-year-old forward) and Achraf Hakimi (27-year-old right-back). The former was as combative as he was creative, capped by a superb goal, while the latter dominated defensively and was a devastating free spirit for Liverpool to deal with.

In any case, thank you for your votes. As a reminder, the podium from each match is then used for the player of the month award.
