Thank you everyone for following the match on France 24. See you tomorrow for Bayern Munich - Real Madrid.
It's over at Anfield
Paris escaped the Anfield trap. Manhandled by Liverpool, PSG held on before seizing victory with two flashes of their Ballon d'Or Dembélé (0-2, 0-4 overall). The Parisians will compete in the semi-final of the Champions League for the third time in a row, a first for a French club.
The double for Dembélé!
On a counter flash in three passes, Dembélé is at the conclusion. Masterful.
Six minutes of added time
Kerkez in despair
The full-back sends a pivoting shot that Safonov blocks. Liverpool are helpless.
Luis Enrique makes a change
The shot is blocked and it goes out for a corner for Liverpool.
Dembélé liberates Paris
Served in front of the surface after excellent work from Barcola on the left, Dembélé shows his talent. A feint to the right, a crook to the left and a shot into the back of the net which leaves the Liverpool goalkeeper on the spot.
Safonov is in the match
The Russian goalkeeper lies down perfectly to repel Rio's strike
The funny image following a failure of production
Total domination of the Reds
Eight shots to 0 since the start of the second half.
Joe Gomez only stayed on the field for 10 minutes
Penalty canceled
After consulting the VAR, the Italian referee reverses his decision. It seems logical given the images.
Penalty for Liverpool
Mac Allister collapses on contact with Pacho.
The big failure of Paris
On a counter, Kvara and Dembélé combine. The latter crosses towards Hakimi who loses his face to face.
Dembélé was offside at the start. It's not Ballon d'Or night.
Paris is in trouble
And Salah is on fire! What a pass for Kerkez who misses his shot. Unless it was a center?
In any case there is fire on the Parisian side.
Launched at full speed and with a first leg advantage (2-0), PSG returns to Anfield on Tuesday where they impressed Europe last year, to face Liverpool in the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League.
In the space of a few days, in March and in particular during the round of 16 against Chelsea (5-2, 3-0), PSG swept away all the doubts and criticism that had surrounded it since the start of 2026. This sudden awakening at the start of spring, while the steamroller and the collective machine seemed rusty in the heart of winter, placed the European champions back in the spotlight of the favorites, with Bayern Munich that they could face in the last four.

But, even if Paris no longer really resembles the crumbly PSG of before the Luis Enrique era, Parisians know the club's history too well to take this return match lightly. And even after the clear and flawless success of last Wednesday. Above all, they know that elimination on the banks of the Mersey would be a terrible failure, just when they have regained the glow of their play and their pressing from last season.
“We are the reigning champions and we know how we have to manage this type of match,” said Achraf Hakimi.
Ultra-dominant in view of the number of rapid and virtuoso actions against the Reds who attempted without much success an experimental three-way defense with two pistons, Ousmane Dembélé's teammates left the Parc des Princes frustrated.
