Seven times the French teams had tried the assault on Anfield and in the seven they ended up defeated. Until Luis Enrique’s PSG appeared and reached glory. A final and several Champions semifinals contemplate the Parisian team in its history but no deed like the one he drew yesterday in the Sanctuary of Liverpool. A Dembélé goal, more than an hour with resisting a siege and a batch of penalties in which Donnarumma erased all his mistakes from the past. A football monument in which, unfortunately, he could only win one and was the PSG.
The PSG knew how to resist the siege ‘Red’ and Dembélé’s goal and Donnarumma’s stops signed the feat
And that which recovered Liverpool his usual tuxedo in Anfield after the cheap costume of the Princes Park and drew a monologue from those house brand. The PSG did not give more than two or three passes in a row at the suffocating pressure of the reds. The ball did not reach Donarumma but the Italian sweated like the most, then crowned as a hero. Salah brought the singing voice in that first section, although it was then diluted badly. The Egyptian put Anfield standing with two goal actions. Nuno Mendes miraculously avoided that the first ended on the network and in the second his shot did not find goal.
It was a full -fledged siege, as if it were, with the PSG in its fort by enduring how, without stopping to send long balls to find two seconds of respite. But football is a capricious sport like few and returned the colleja of the first leg, where after firing 28 times he ended up yielding to a much lower Liverpool. From nothing, Dembélé found space in the center of the countryside, he sprified, gave the ball to Barcola and went to the auction. There came the blow of luck capable of skipping any control. In his attempt to clear, Konaté left the dead ball so that the Frenchman signed his 29th of the course. Part of that medal, for Luis Enrique.
With the matched tie, the game was also balanced. And what a game. They could have played all night and would not have produced a single yawn. The vertigo invaded both sides of the lawn and the goalkeepers won a salary increase. Donnarumma disguised as Mazinger Z, taking out his fists every time he could in the Liverpool centers. And Alisson, the great hero of Paris, depressing Barcola when Luis Enrique already celebrated the second in the band. The end of the first part had a French accent and Dembélé touched the second in two shots that left Anfield mute, such as Kvarathskhelia, which went from less to more to leave his stamp.
Nothing to do with the second half, dyed red from the beginning and that had epic dyes by a PSG that defended himself as he could and as he knew, which did very well. Donnarumma was the most requested Gallic player because the ball settled in his field and seemed not to want to leave him, as if he were on vacation and did not want to return to the routine. The Italian first looked against Diogo Jota. Moments later, it was Kvarathskhelia who saved the ballot and took Salah’s shot under sticks. Anfield did not believe it, who smelled the draw but he didn’t have just arrived. Donnarumma seemed to have taken the donettes because he accumulated the ‘friends’. Quanseah’s shot crashed with the stick. It seemed that the tie, of those that enhance a competition like the Champions League, was intended for extension. Half an hour more football was a gift. A Alisson paradón to Dembélé was the best of that added time. The penalties were going to point out the path of glory. Donnarumma stopped the releases of Núñez and Jones and signed the great night of Luis Enrique’s PSG, which already sows terror in Europe.
