Paris Saint Germain is among the four best teams in Europe. After 2-3 in the first leg, the French team managed to reverse the series against Barcelona after being 0-1 at the beginning of the rematch. Led by a great performance by Kylian Mbappé, those led by Luis Enrique won the tie 6-4 on aggregate after the win at the Olympic Stadium and celebrated their place in the semifinals.
After the game, after the celebrations of the Parisians on the field, Mbappé headed towards the tunnel towards the locker room. According to the Catalan media such as Sport and Mundo Deportivo, PSG’s number 7 was one of the most euphoric and was in charge of repeating a phrase that he echoed throughout the Blaugrana squad.
“This is football and it is on the field where we have to talk,” the Frenchman, who has a good command of the Spanish language, was heard saying. This situation provoked the fury of several local soccer players, who upon hearing his words, reports indicate that there were some who went to look for the attacker and a riot broke out that did not escalate.
There was no shortage of pushing, shouting and insults between the players, part of the coaching staff of both teams and the organization and security agents who tried to separate the protagonists of the fight in the bowels of the venue that bears the name of Lluís. Companys.
The images after PSG’s 4-1 victory showed an exultant Mbappé. He was heard saying “on y va” (let’s go in French) and made some gestures to the culé fans, who reacted against the world champion striker with his country’s national team in Russia 2018. After that, the forward who eight goals and who, thanks to his double against Barcelona in the second leg, became the top scorer in the Champions League, hugged PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi before going to the locker room.
“I am proud to be here from day one. It’s not because there are good and bad times that my pride suffers. The pride of playing for this club, of representing the club from the capital of my country, is something special for me because I grew up here. Living a night like this as a Parisian is great. We have taken one more step, but we have to stay calm,” Mbappé declared after the match in relation to having achieved a victory that put them in the semifinals of the highest club competition in Europe.
The future of PSG’s number 7 is one of the topics that will keep fans of the club that dominates first division football in France in suspense in recent times. After June 30, many believe that Mbappé will leave the capital of the country where he was born to go to Spain to play for Real Madrid.
After leaving those led by Xavi Hernández behind, the Spanish press asked Kylian if his decision to leave the institution had changed and his response was brief but forceful. “No, no, no,” was the 25-year-old player’s brief response. Was it a nod to the White House? What must be said is that Paris Saint Germain qualified for the semifinals and will now face Borussia Dortmund, who eliminated Cholo Simeone’s Atlético de Madrid. If the Tricolor advances to the definition and the Merengues do the same against Bayern Munich, they will face each other in the legendary Wembley stadium for the title.
