All your predictions were right except for Liverpool, I always doubted Liverpool’s chances of winning over PSG after watching the first leg. PSG totally outplayed Liverpool in their game but were unfortunate to concede in the end. In the second leg PSG made sure that slip up never happened as they equalized Liverpool’s one goal and beat them in penalties.
After Liverpool failed to advance to the quarter-finals, the chances of an English team winning the UCL trophy are very small, now the EPL representatives are Arsenal and Aston Villa, in my opinion both teams will have difficulty when facing other strong teams such as Real Madrid and PSG. Liverpool were very unlucky in the second leg, they only needed a draw to qualify, but the goal scored by PAG at Anfield changed everything.
Yes soccer analyst and pundits might have gave both Arsenal and Aston Villa slight chances of qualification to the next semifinals of UCL, however I have a contrary view because the present Real Madrid squad is as formidable as they use to be except maybe Vinicius Jr and Mbappe other few players while Saka would be back for Arsenal so it's going to be a dicey match on a good if Arsenal are in top of their game they look unstoppable, while Aston Villa clash with PSG would also be a tough match because I expect Emery to do the needful by playing attacking football against the french champion rather than defending hopefully would come out with a favorable outcome.
