Aston Villa v PSG Post-Match Thread

[taylorsworkrate]

If the French FA hadn't over-ruled one of their own teams, and PSG played the weekend we would have done them.

None of their players tonight would have played in that match even if the French FA had done that in fairness

Also - come on Real tomorrow!!

UEFA will already have the corruption lined up.

As it’s Arsenal? I will love it

Oh completely! I was concentrating more on the fact that the commentary team were already saying how PSG would fare against Arsenal in the semi final as of it was established that they're already through.

The similarities with the Atletico tie way back when are apt. We were in with a chance with plenty of time on the clock, but couldn't score that vital goal.

Let's get back in this competition next year.

so anyway, who ballsed up the CL music?

Beaten the French champions. Very very proud even if we have been knocked out. Hopefully confidence and momentum will stay high for the remaining games.

Wasn't quite the dream tonight, but still a great game that all the players should be proud.

And they can stick that drum up their arse. I'm ABPSG for the cup, except Arsenal obvs

Did Prince William shout "get the fuck in" then?

It was very similar to that - punched them to a stand still.

Bozzie made a couple of saves late on as per Emi when we were chasing winning goal

[Smirker]

Go and get the FA Cup now.

A brilliant game game; one of the best I have ever seen in terms of quality and drama and have been watching Villa since 1975.

The atmosphere was superb.

Fantastic fight back and we had the chances to win it.

Special mention for McGinn. I have been very crtitical of him over the years and doubted his quality. Not for the first time this season he was outstanding, capping it off with a worldie.

Rashford was unplayable in the 2nd half and the substitution of Watkins seemed to cost us our momentum.

They had both weekends off before they played us, and hung on to win by one goal, and they added 3 mins on at the end lol...but I bet UEFA are happy and the ref got his apartment in Marbella FOC...shithouses

[Nelly]

Felt like we could have scored 6 tonight, against a team that everyone was creaming over last week. So incredibly proud that the world saw the very best of Aston Villa.

Did you see Nas and Wes lecturing the players at the tunnel at the end?  No me neither.

No, they played the first week and won 1-0 to clinch the Ligue 1.
