Paris Saint-Germain displayed their dominance as they secured their spot in the Champions League semi-finals with a thrilling 5-4 aggregate victory over Aston Villa. Despite a 3-2 defeat in a pulsating second leg at Villa Park, PSG’s first-leg advantage proved to be enough to see them through.

The visitors started strong, with Achraf Hakimi breaking the deadlock with a composed finish early on. Hakimi doubled PSG’s lead just 16 minutes later, capitalizing on a swift counter-attack to seemingly put the tie out of reach for Villa.

However, Villa fought back before halftime, with Youri Tielemans pulling one back with a deflected effort. The hosts turned the game on its head in the second half, as captain John McGinn unleashed a stunning long-range strike to level the score. Ezri Konsa then slotted home after a dazzling run and assist from Marcus Rashford, putting Villa within one goal of overturning the aggregate deficit.

Unai Emery’s side pushed forward in search of a historic comeback, with Donnarumma making crucial saves to keep PSG in the lead. Despite Villa’s relentless pressure, PSG held firm to secure their place in the semi-finals.

In the next round, PSG will face either Arsenal or Real Madrid, and they will need to improve defensively to continue their journey in the competition. The French champions showed great resilience in facing a tough test in Birmingham, and they will be looking to give their all in the semi-final in hopes of reaching the final and ultimately lifting the Champions League trophy.
