Champions League: PSG vs Liverpool, Player ratings:
6,5 - Matvey Safonov
The Russian goalkeeper did not have much to do in this game, but was efficient when called upon in certain situations. While he is not Donnarumma, he could be an important piece of this team if they were to go far in the competition.
7 - Achraf Hakimi
The Moroccan was a constant threat when going forward in a dominant collective performance.
6.5 - Marquinhos
The Brazil international centre-back did not have much to do in the first-leg against Liverpool. The Reds had tremendous difficulties getting into PSG's box.
6.5 - Willian Pacho
The Ecuadorian was not put to the test tonight with Liverpool struggling to create any significant chances.
6.5- Nuno Mendes
Nuno Mendes had once again a very good game as his team secured a dominant home victory against the Reds.
7- Vitinha
As usual, Vitinha was everywhere on the pitch for PSG as they dominated Arne Slot's team.
7- Joao Neves
Joao Neves had a very solid game against Liverpool.
7.5 - Warren Zaire-Emery
The 20-year-old who made his 40th Champions League appearance also became the youngest player to reach this mark. He was certainly the best element of PSG's midfield against Liverpool being almost unstoppable on both sides of the ball.
7.5 - Désiré Doué
The France international was superb in the first half of the game, bringing danger constantly against Liverpool. His deflected strike gave the lead to his team after 11 minutes. He was replaced after 78 minutes by Kang-In Lee.
6.5 - Ousmane Dembélé
It was not his best perforamnce of the season. The France international missed several opportunities that could have made it easier for his team ahead of the second-leg. He was replaced by Lucas Hernandez after 88 minutes.
8 - Khvicha Kvaratskhelia
The Georgian scored a fantastic goal to make it 2-0 for PSG. He gave nightmares to Liverpool's defence and was also impressive when he helped his side defensively. He is a key player of this team and will be needed next week to seal a semi-final spot.
