Ousmane Dembélé delivered a clinical brace as Paris Saint-Germain comfortably defeated Liverpool 2-0 in the second leg at Anfield, securing a 4-0 aggregate victory and booking their spot in the Champions League semi-finals.
The reigning champions had already taken a commanding 2-0 lead from the first leg in Paris (goals by Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia), and despite Liverpool pushing hard for a comeback on home soil, PSG’s attacking quality shone through. Dembélé, who had been wasteful with several big chances in the first leg, made no mistake this time—scoring twice to kill off any hope of a Reds revival.
Liverpool dominated possession and created opportunities (with players like Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, and others testing the PSG defence), but they failed to convert, while PSG remained clinical on the counter.
The result marks another strong European campaign for Luis Enrique’s side, who are now through to the last four for the first time in recent seasons after lifting the trophy last year.
What’s next?
PSG will face the winner of the other quarter-final tie between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in the semi-finals (first leg 28/29 April, second leg 5/6 May). That tie is still alive:
Bayern won the first leg 2-1 away at the Bernabéu (goals from Luis Díaz and Harry Kane), so the second leg at the Allianz Arena tonight (15 April) will be decisive.
Dembélé’s performance will boost confidence heading into the semis, especially after his earlier Ligue 1 brace against Toulouse helped PSG build momentum. It’s a reminder of the French forward’s ability to produce in big moments when it counts.
A solid night for PSG—clinical finishing and defensive resilience sealed it.
Who do you fancy them to meet in the semis, Bayern or Real?
