The PSG female version, still in contention in the Champions League, has the opportunity this evening in the event of victory to climb to the semi-finals of the most beautiful European competition. They will nevertheless have to pass the obstacle of Wolfsburg.
The defeat surely had a bitter taste for the Parisiennes who lost last Wednesday March 22 1 to 0 against Wolfsburg. They conceded a fatal penalty in the 62nd minute and a red card thus ending the match at 10. Defender Elisa De Almeida will therefore not be part of the return. The Parisian players were also very upset against the behavior of certain opposing players such as during the expulsion of the Parisian player, applauded by the opponents. Defeats of course, but not yet eliminated, the capital club have a second chance tonight in the quarter-final second leg of the Women’s Champions League to reverse the situation at the AOK Stadion.
“At the end of the match they looked a little shocked to have won, so you have to go there with a lot of confidence,” said goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi. Gérard Prêcheur, the coach estimated in a press conference before the opposition that his team “will not have a choice. There will be a game plan in the continuity of what we did in the first leg. But we have the obligation to mark and we must make changes”. Sakina Karchaoui, went in the direction of his trainer by saying “that we had to stay on our base of play, possession”.
Parisian supporters will be fixed before 9 p.m. since the kick-off of the meeting between Wolfsburg and PSG will be given by Cheryl Foster at 6:45 p.m.

The Germans have almost achieved the most difficult by going to win at the Parc des Princes against PSG. Both teams will make changes. PSG must, for example, compensate for the red card of De Almeida. In midfield Gérard Prêcheur will probably trust Hamraoui and Fazer. New also on the side of Wolfsburg with Lattwein and Oberdorf who will occupy the midfield.
