Parisians Plot Comeback with Smiles and Promises…
In an unexpected twist, Paris Saint-Germain’s players were more baffled by Liverpool’s heroic goalie than by their own defeat. Despite the loss in their Champions League match, the Parisians left the field more confident than ever. With Liverpool’s Alisson pulling off a record-breaking nine saves, the Reds barely scraped a win after Harvey Elliott’s magic moment. PSG felt like they were battling the Alisson Show rather than Liverpool’s team. Even Arne Slot admitted they struck it lucky, while Alisson had the best career night of his life.
Achraf Hakimi dubbed Alisson ‘man of the match’, and his teammate Khvicha Kvaratskhelia felt they deserved more. Vitinha, however, was the most optimistic of the lot, declaring, “We’re going to score and go through, I’m sure of it!” Clearly, the spirit in PSG’s locker room was more of a spontaneous party than a somber post-defeat gathering. Luis Enrique’s side seemed unfazed, with the likes of Donnarumma receiving pep talks that just screamed, “We’ve got this!”
According to L’Equipe, PSG players were scratching their heads over Liverpool’s level of play, yet looked forward to the next round with superhero-level confidence. With Rennes awaiting in Ligue 1, Enrique shuns Liverpool chatter for now. But with the gathering clouds over Anfield, PSG is gunning for their shot at an epic comeback chapter—cue the movie effects and triumphant music!
