Barca's weakness in defence is they play such a high line. The risk-reward strategy is working but when the opposition have pace to burn, just stick the ball over the top. Dortmund are quicker than the Barca defence.

Nervous night for Villa. If we win, I doubt I'll turn up to work tomorrow.

That's a brilliant save by Emiliano Martinez. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, again inside the box, he gets it to Ousmane Dembele.
But Martinez reacts well and saves it with the top of his hand.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia goes to ground, but quickly bounces up and PSG shout for a penalty. But the play continues and Ousmane Dembele strikes it well but it is a great reflex save from Emiliano Martinez.
Villa can't get out, it's all PSG so far.
Barcelona 0-0 Borussia Dortmund

That's three good chances in seven minutes. It could be a long, long night [for Dortmund].
Barcelona 0-0 Borussia Dortmund
Barcelona are all over Dortmund! This time Raphinha pulls one back to Robert Lewandowski whose shot is tipped over by Gregor Kobel.
Dortmund can't get out.

Yamal got caught up in the moment. Lewandowski made a beautiful run.
It was nice skill and he gets a bit of fortune, but Lewandowski is there. Why doesn't he roll it on a plate? Lewandowski is at the front post.
Barcelona 0-0 Borussia Dortmund
First sight of goal and it falls to teenager Lamine Yamal who cuts on to his left in the box and tries to curl one into the far corner.
Goalkeeper Gregor Kobel dives to his right to palm the shot away.
Moments later and Yamal's at it again, getting free in the box but he flashes a shot just wide.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa

Paris St-Germain are a very well drilled outfit. They understand their system and everyone understands their individual job.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on this left-hand-side is going to be a problem. He ended up with a decent shot, but it didn't really trouble Emiliano Martinez.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa
Vitinha gets a shooting chance just outside the penalty area and it's a grass cutter, but Emiliano Martinez in the Villa goal dives to his right and grabs hold of the ball.
Barcelona 0-0 Borussia Dortmund

Former Real Madrid winger on TNT Sports
Brilliant again from Lewandowski and Raphinha. He was onside, the one-two with Lewandowski and a nice ball into the box. That needed to be cleared by Bensebaini. That back four of Dortmund, you don't have a lot of confidence in them.

We can already see the tone of the game. As soon as Aston Villa have possession PSG are so quick to close them down.
You would expect better from Ousmane Dembele.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa
Ousmane Dembele collects a pass and strikes at goal, but it flies over the top for the hosts. When out of possession, Villa had six players in a line in defence and Unai Emery hopes they can be a solid form of resistance.

Barca look well up for this. A give and go between Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski puts the ex-Leeds man through down the left, but his cross is hacked clear.
Barcelona 0-0 Borussia Dortmund
Barcelona get on the ball in the final third but they hold things up, waiting for an opening which, unfortunately for them, never materialises.
By the way, Barcelona sensation Lamine Yamal has become the youngest ever player to make 20 Champions League appearances by starting. He's still only 17 years and 270 days old.
All the talk can stop now. It's time for action. We're under way in Paris and Barcelona.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa (20:00 BST)
Paris St-Germain have the fifth-youngest starting XI on average in the UEFA Champions League this season (24y 242d), and the youngest of any team remaining in the 2024-25 tournament.
Paris St-Germain 0-0 Aston Villa

After the pyrotechnics and the lasers, the PSG fans have unfurled a huge flag behind one goal emblazoned with the words "Virage Auteuil" - which is the stand where the club's passionate "Ultras" congregate.
Huge noise inside the Parc des Princes. The stage is set.

Emiliano Martinez - the master of the wind-up.
Olly
Yep. Unai Emery was managing Paris St-Germain that day. Luis Enrique was in charge of Barcelona who, in their round of 16 tie with PSG in 2017, won 6-1 on the night to sneak through 6-5 on aggregate.

UEFA Champions League
All competitions
Paris SG and Aston Villa will meet for the first time in European competition, with this just the second UEFA Champions League quarter-final between French and English sides in the last eight campaigns (Manchester City 1-3 Lyon in the only leg in 2019-20).
Paris SG eliminated Liverpool in the last 16 of this season’s UEFA Champions League, after having exited the competition in each of their last three knockout stage meetings with English sides (v Man City in 2015-16 and 2020-21, and Man Utd in 2018-19).
Aston Villa have never won away to a French opponent in European competition (P5 D2 L3); their most away to teams from one nation without winning. The last two have both been defeats under Unai Emery, losing at Lille in April 2024 (1-2) and at Monaco in January this year (0-1).
Aston Villa will be the fourth different English team that Paris SG have faced in the UEFA Champions League this season (also Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool). This is the joint-most opponents from one nation that a team have played against in a single European Cup/Champions League campaign, along with Leeds United in 2000-01 (four Spanish sides) and Real Madrid in 2023-24 (four German sides).
Aston Villa boss Unai Emery has won just two of his 10 games against Luis Enrique as a manager (D1 L7), with both wins coming in home fixtures. Indeed, this will be the first time they’ve faced each other since the 2016-17 campaign, when Luis Enrique’s Barcelona came from 0-4 down in the first leg to eliminate Emery’s Paris SG side in the UEFA Champions League last 16 (6-1 win in the second leg).
Paris SG have the fifth-youngest starting XI on average in the UEFA Champions League this season (24y 242d), and the youngest of any team remaining in the 2024-25 tournament.
52% of Aston Villa’s chances created in the UEFA Champions League this season have come from the middle third of the pitch (left/middle/right); the highest percentage of any side. Meanwhile, Unai Emery’s team have conceded the fewest overall chances from the middle third this term (12).
Ousmane Dembélé has netted seven goals in his last six UEFA Champions League games for Paris SG, one more than in his previous 36 appearances in the competition combined (6). Six of those seven goals have been scored in away matches, however.
Paris SG’s Vitinha has completed 93% of his passes made under high-intensity pressure in the UEFA Champions League this season (544/586); the highest completion rate of any midfielder in the competition (min. 100 attempted). The Portuguese also leads all players for line-breaking passes in the knockout stages of the current tournament (77).
Marco Asensio has scored three goals in two UEFA Champions League appearances for Aston Villa (both as a substitute), after failing to score in 10 games for former club Paris SG in the competition. If he finds the net in this game, 2024-25 would be his best ever return in a single Champions League campaign (currently on three).
