The Parisians spent Liverpool in the last 16 while pursuing their European dream and they are now looking for more English opposition. Kvaratskhelia's second half strike brought PSG control over the game after fellow wing player Doue also received the action, so that the opener of Morgan Rogers was canceled.
Nuno Mendes broke forward with minutes and showed sensational calmness to complete, so that the game may be put outside the visitors.

1. PSG justify and deal with favoritism
The way of loss of Real Madrid Last night the bookmakers saw PSG install quickly, a side that threatened to go from Europe in the group stage, as tournament favorites. Luis Enrique seems to have his French outfit spinning and they have now supported enough to conquer the continent.
If dominating games is an art, this PSG outfit on the field create that Claude Monet would smile. The Parisians surpassed Liverpool in the final round and it was much of the same against Villa. Without the superstar egos of yesteryear, they watch a team from every centimeter that can finally win the Champions League that their Qatarese owners want so much. Now it will have to do with that pressure and expectation, while Liverpool has shown that a smash and grip is not off the cards.
2. £ 120 million well spent
PSG has shown for more than a decade that money does not buy trophies and they have world record transfer costs to prove this. However, what it buys is outright quality and it was that kind of quality that means that they go to England with the benefit.
The backline of Liverpool discovered how difficult Kvaratskhelia was to deal with. He only moved to Paris in January, making Napoli changed owner after £ 70 million. He did not waste time by repaying that reimbursement, while Due put the club back £ 50 million when he signed from Rennes in the summer. Combined the couple turned the game upside down and with pace, desire, width, working speed and end product there are few boxes that they don't check.
3. Villa stays in the draw – only
The Premier League club knew that they were huge outsiders on their way to Paris, but the message will just give yourself a chance to go back to Villa Park. The opening goal gave the visitors something to hold on, even if their lead was a short, but Emery's side proved that they could resist waves of PSG pressure when they came.
Villa's record on their own patch is impressive and the will of Bayern Munich have already been sent. Returning from France was only half of the mission and the newcomers of the Champions League still have a slim chance to complete their assignment, but they need everything to go against them with PSG that loses two-whites this season.
4. Doue. Wow.
There will have been enough, especially those who are not used to French football, who have seen Doue wear a PSG shirt for the first time. He stood behind Bradley Barcola in the pecking order, but boy stood up the teenager and said 'this is my stage tonight'.
His strike to level the game just before the 40 minutes was sublime and that seemed to inject even more confidence in an attacker who hardly missed it in the beginning. Doue was not cheap, but on the modern market, and with more than a decade of quality, it seems the smartest of investments.
5. William is central
He is certainly the most famous supporter of the club, and Boy supports them. The Prince of Wales, accompanied by son George, traveled to Paris to be present for one of the most famous European nights of the club. William has been seen in the stands for some of their earlier group games.
Despite his royal obligations, the 42-year-old, who was born was born a few months after Villa won the European Cup in 1982, an avid fan and, like a coach, he was in the tunnel in the Parc des Princes and shook his hand with each player on his way to the dressing room. The camera was also fast to go his way and he celebrated the goal of Rogers passionately with his son.
