However, in the match between Liverpool vs PSG, I considered Liverpool as the favorite team and last season, Liverpool was one of the top four teams in the Champions League for me but they could not show a very good performance. Since PSG defeated Liverpool, I started expecting something good from this team and gradually PSG performed well and defeated bigger teams. The biggest obstacle for PSG was Real Madrid and many thought that PSG would not be able to win against Real Madrid but they defeated Real Madrid and ensured the desired final.

PSG didn't face Madrid in the champions league, it was arsenal that did. Maybe it would've been a tough test but we'd never know now as Arsenal eliminated them prior. Real Madrid don't rate the Club World Cup as much as they do the UCL so maybe there would've been a twist.
As a Liverpool fan, I backed PSG that night that they eliminated Liverpool in the penalty shootout. My thesis was simple. If they could make Liverpool look powerless for both legs of the round of 16,then they can beat almost all renaming teams and they did.
