Luis Enrique, PSG head coach, in Amazon Prime’s comment:
“It doesn’t matter if we deserve a victory. Both teams deserved to go on. We were the best in Paris, the rivals played better here. But my team showed a wonderful personality and character on Enfield. The atmosphere was fantastic, and it was very difficult to play here.
When the lot set out a pair of Liverpool – Paris, both coaches thought equally: it will be one of the best matches that can be seen in Europe. The Champions League is not about stability. Here you need to play great in key points. We suffered a lot, and the rivals suffered a lot. ”
MarquinosPSG defender:
“It was a very difficult match. We had to make every effort, it was really difficult, but we did our best to win this confrontation. Liverpool requires a lot from you – it is a very strong team. Now we are in the quarter -finals and we must be ready for another difficult confrontation.
This is a special day for us – to come here and win with such a young team. Coach, staff, everyone did a great job. Our capabilities are endless. We can’t stop at this – there is still a job. We need to recover and think about the next match – at home against Marseille in League 1 on Sunday. ”
