On Wednesday, PSG defeated Liverpool in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals with a score of 2-0. This performance has shocked Europe.
Paris Saint-Germain continues to impress Europe. Facing Liverpool in the Champions League quarterfinal first leg (2-0), the Red and Blue gave their opponents a real football lesson. This performance has made an impact worldwide.
Although the qualification for the semifinals is not yet confirmed and the idea of a back-to-back victory remains distant, some already consider this PSG team in high regard in football history. French journalist Sebastien Tarrago believes this Luis Enrique’s PSG is approaching the level of Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona.
“I am very impressed with the football Luis Enrique wants to play. I listen to him and I also watch the matches in Ligue 1, and I have always been very impressed because I am profoundly bored when I see the football he preaches in press conferences being played. But in the end, I think he really dazzles us because as soon as the Champions League arrives, as soon as it gets serious, Paris Saint-Germain is a whirlwind. I saw Guardiola’s Barcelona in 2009, 2010, and 2011, which I followed closely, and they are not far behind. They are not far anymore. If they were to beat Bayern Munich, I would put them at that level,” said Tarrago.
Finish the job at Anfield
Despite winning the first leg against Liverpool, PSG is determined to remain focused until the end. At Anfield, the team’s goal is to win and secure their spot in the competition’s semifinals for the third consecutive year.
If PSG qualifies for the semifinals, they could potentially face Bayern Munich or Real Madrid. The answer will be known in a few days.
