He Aston Villa He was about to work the miracle against him Paris Saint-Germainbut he stayed at the gates of forcing the extension. Those of Unai Emery They turned a tie that had completely lost in half an hour after the initial 0-2. But the English were redone and turned him until he put on 3-2 on the scoreboard at the beginning of the second half. Although they enjoyed opportunities to score the room, they ran into Donnarumma and the PSG of Luis Enrique It is classified for semifinals. There will be measured to the winner of Real Madrid-Senal
Despite the Arreón in the second part that left Birmingham to a goal to force the extension, Emery stayed on the edge of a historic miracle And it is Luis Enrique, again suffering as in the eighth against Liverpool, the one who wins and has his team in the semifinals, waiting for what happens in the Santiago Bernabéu to meet his rival.
The most important night in the history of Villa Park In the last four decades, since the Juventus of Michel Platini was eliminated from the Europe The hymn of the Europa League sounded instead of the Champions League.
And it did not improve when the ball rolled. After ten minutes, Achraf Hakimi took advantage of a dead ball in a misunderstanding between Emiliano Martínez and Pau Torres to make 0-1 and Half an hour Nuno Mendes crowned a counter with 0-2 favorable to PSG. Both plays were born in the area of the Parisians, in two counterattacks that condemned the villa to an impossible comeback. They needed four goals to force the extension.
The first came quickly. Youri Tielemansafter a good combination between rashford and mcginn, He shot that he repelled in Pacho and diverted the trajectory to Donnarumma. It was somewhat to raise the stands, to convince Prince Guillermo and his son Jorge that a miracle was not so far. And when McGinn, in another ball bounced in Pacho, turned the tieVilla Park believed it completely.
The stadium began winning the game and the energy infected the players, to the point that It soon arrived on 3-2 through a play of rashford. The former United player drunk Fabián Ruiz, threatened Vitinha and put a death pass that defined Raso Ezri Konsa. A goal with a message to Old Trafford, while he plays for the semifinals of the Champions League, the United seeks not to sink into the Europa League.
Donnarumma avoids crushing
To a goal from the extension, the villa could not do more to achieve it. Donnarumma covered McGinn twice In a header and Marco Asensio in a hand in hand, and Kansa did not connect a gifted header in a lateral foul of rashford. Emery ended by the soils, because he knew that a historical comeback was escaping, which maybe football due to what happened against Barcelona in 2016.
There was at least the extra time, on those three occasions that vanished and that, both in football and in life, never returned. The villa made a superhuman effort to lift 0-2but, when he had done the most difficult, he cost him to embocar and the PSG gets into the semifinals. Something similar to what happened to Rory Mcilroy in Augusta, but without happy ending.
