This Tuesday night, Paris Saint-Germain won a tough victory against Aston Villa in a return match of the Champions League, paving the way for the semi-finals. The match, played at Villa Park, resulted in a 3-2 defeat for the Parisians, but the combined score of 5-4 allowed them to qualify for the next round. This progress marks a second consecutive semifinal appearance in the competition, following the elimination of the previous year against Borussia Dortmund, and attests to the team’s resilience against a determined opponent.

The dates and locations of the semi-finals have already been defined, although the identity of the PSG opponent remains to be determined. The club of the capital will face the winner of the confrontation between Real Madrid and Arsenal. The all-round match will take place outside for Paris Saint-Germain, probably on April 29 or 30, while the return match promises an electric atmosphere at Parc des Princes, scheduled for May 6 or 7.

Attention is now focused on the shock this Wednesday evening, to determine whether the PSG will face another English club or, more intriguingly, its former iconic player, Kylian Mbappé. The outcome of this meeting will therefore have particular importance, both sportingly and symbolically, and will determine the path of Paris Saint-Germain towards the final of the Champions League.
