PSG will face Liverpool or Barcelona in the Round of 16, the draw set for Friday. The media asked the Spanish coach who he would prefer from the two European giants.

It shows Enrique has confidence in his team and has every right to be. The Parisians have hot form at the right time, playing with a swagger that could get them far in the competition.

Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia scored the second goal against Brest yesterday, and he was optimistic when asked if PSG could win the competition.

Yeah of course everything is possible… we just have to concentrate and put everything on the field.
