END! The match is over! After Luis Enrique’s substitution of Goncalo Ramos for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and a great save by Dibu Martinez after a shot by Warren Zaire-Emery, the referee blows the final whistle, PSG have won! Good victory for the French team to go to the second leg with peace of mind. 3-1, final score.

GOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOAL! GOAL for PSG! Nuno Mendes scores! Just when it looked like nothing else was going to happen, the Portuguese full-back received a pass from Nuno Mendes and evaded a defender and the diving Dibu Martinez to score with his right foot.

We are slowly reaching the end of the match. The clock shows that we have reached the 90th minute and the referee decides that three minutes of extra time will be played. Everything seems to indicate that the score will remain like this.

We enter the final moments of the match. Five minutes left to find out how much the referee is going to reinstate in a game where PSG’s third goal is more expected or to stay as we are now. Aston Villa have been well served with the goal they got.

The last three substitutions are made at Aston Villa. In come Amadou Onana, Ian Maatsen and Ollie Watkins to replace Marcus Rashford, Youri Tielemans and John McGinn. Last thing Unai Emery tries to hold on for this result and maybe get something more.

We reached the half hour mark in the second half. PSG continues to win with a certain tranquility, thanks to Aston Villa taking a more defensive stance in the second half. 15 minutes to go.. 

The first substitutions of the match are made for PSG. Luis Enrique is looking to freshen up his team and now sends on both Bradley Barcola and Warren Zaire-Emery to replace Fabian Ruiz and Desire Doué.

There are 20 minutes left in the match. PSG continue to dominate the match at least with possession, looking for some space and the odd surprise, but fail to do much damage down the stretch. They still lead 2-1.

Once again, Dibu Martinez! The goalkeeper continues to show security and once again catches a shot from Lucas Beraldo, who wanted to surprise with a shot from mid distance, but it went low and without power.

PSG came close again. Dibu Martinez appeared again, this time to catch the ball after a header by Lucas Beraldo following a cross by Kvaratskhelia from a corner kick from the left. The home team keeps trying.

The first substitution in the match is presented. Unai Emery begins to look for possible solutions to the adverse stretch that Aston Villa is going through now. Marco Asensio comes on to replace Jacob Ramsey.

PSG HAD A CHANCE! DIBU MARTINEZ SAVED IT! The Argentine goalkeeper saves again for Aston Villa after a shot from Achraf Hakimi near the area. Good right hand to prevent the third goal of PSG. 

The start of the second half was quite calm and after finding the lead goal, they allowed themselves to play with much more patience to look for spaces in the opponent’s defense, as was their initial plan.

GOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOOOOOAL! GOAL for PSG! Khvicha Kvaratskhelia scores! The Georgian appears to make a solo run into the box on the left before firing the ball inside the near post and just inside the post. The French take the lead.

THE MATCH RESTARTS AT THE PARC DES PRINCES! The referee signals the start of the second half. Neither Luis Enrique nor Unai Emery have felt the need to make any changes to their teams, so the same players who started the match are back.

The first half is over at the Parc des Princes! The referee signals the end of the first half and the teams go into the break with the score at 1-1. The level of the match went from low to high.

We are approaching the end of the first half and we are living the last moments. The timer reads 45 minutes and the referee is resetting two minutes before the teams go to the break. The score remains 1-1 for the moment.

PSG HAD A CHANCE! Desire Doué was again on the attack after the goal and once again Desire Doué was on target, but Dibu Martinez again got his hands to keep out the danger. The game remained tied.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOAL for PSG! What a goal by Desire Doué! He saw the chance to get a shot off from mid-range and put the ball all the way inside the left post of Dibu Martinez. The game is tied again! 1-1.

DIBU MARTINEZ SAVED! The Argentinian goalkeeper saved again for Aston Villa after saving a Desire Doué’s shot. It seemed that the ball was slipping out of his hands and he reacted to save it on the line.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOOOOOAL! GOAL for Aston Villa! Morgan Rogers scores! The English surprise at the Parc des Princes! Nuno Mendes lost the ball in the middle of the pitch and the counter-attack was activated to end with a cross from Tielemans finding the striker to score in front of Donnarumma.

We reached the first 30 minutes of the match. Aston Villa does not do much damage with the times they have had the ball, but managed to slow down the momentum of PSG and this is a relief for those led by Unai Emery. The goalkeepers have not worked again.

We are approaching the half hour mark in the match. The pace has become quite slow since Aston Villa managed to equalize. PSG have lacked ideas to regain control of the game. We continue to have no goals so far.

PSG HAD A CHANCE! The French team came close again with a good team move after winning in the middle of the pitch, which ended with a shot from Vitinha that went just over the crossbar. The score remained 0-0 despite the efforts of the home side.

PSG tried again. The home team came close after Achraf Hakimi received the ball and took a mid-range shot, but it came out low and Dibu Martinez was alert to catch the ball despite the difficulty to see it.

The first caution of the match is given. The referee shows the yellow card to Matty Cash, after fouling Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the middle of the pitch. At first glance, it seems a bit exaggerated.

PSG is coming again. Vitinha is the lynchpin of the team and the one in charge of pulling the strings for the home team. Now he looked for a deep pass to find Achraf Hakimi, but Dibu Martinez reacted well to deny him.

The pace of the match calmed down a bit, after PSG had started with a lot of momentum looking for the opponent’s goal. For the first time, Unai Emery’s team managed to keep possession of the ball for longer. Still no goals.

A GREAT SAVE BY DIBU MARTÍNEZ! A great save by the Argentine after Kvaratskhelia crashed the ball into Youri Tielemans and on the rebound, Ousmane Dembélé volleyed a shot to send the goalkeeper flying.

First dangerous arrival for PSG! Vitinha’s low shot from Vitinha after Dembélé was left with a long ball, but Dibuz Martinez was on hand to catch the shot. The home team tries from the start.
