Kylian Mbappé (Paris SG striker)
“It's wonderful, but we didn't win anything.
We are very happy.
It's a very important game for us.
We wanted to come here and win.
That's what we did with the way.
I always wanted to give the best of myself with PSG, it's a jersey that is close to my heart.
I have not always been successful, I may still miss matches, but never in life will I hide, even if we make mistakes in life.
Today my hard work pays off.
The coach (Mauricio Pochettino) has done a wonderful job since he arrived (early January), but he continued the work of Thomas Tuchel, who did an extraordinary job with the final.
We were a bit heckled, there was the Covid, the lack of preparation ... We can't apologize, but the truth is that we have a good staff.
We are starting to get better and better physically, we are not yet at the peak of our form.
We will try to continue to progress ”
As in January, Mbappé swept aside the questions about his future, as he negotiates the extension of his contract expiring in 2022: "It's stupid to play your future on a match, whether it's good or bad.
It's ridiculous.
The truth is, it's a long term thinking, not a game or two.
I have always said that I am happy here, after these kinds of matches, I am even more so. ”
Antoine Griezmann (FC Barcelona striker)
“We had to have a perfect match, we didn't do it, they did.
After that, what to remember, or not to remember, is to watch the video again ... It's hard to think of something after taking four and suffering a big defeat.
We were ready, we wanted to play a big game, but they were better than us and I think there is nothing to say or to look for on the right or on the left.
They were better than us, Kylian had a really big night and voila.
There is still a return match, it will be complicated but we will not go to visit.
We must continue to work as we did, the season is still long.
We are professionals, we will have to go there to win and try to turn the situation around, do everything to pass.
As I said before, we are not going to go there as tourists, but to try to make a big game.
(On the Mbappé treble) I'm happy for him, he had been criticized a lot.
But when you have had someone for a long time, as soon as they are less well you criticize them, it's quite easy.
But I believe that Paris Saint-Germain have a future very big star, who will be at the level of Leo (Messi) or Cristiano (Ronaldo), so we have to take advantage of it every day.
We must congratulate him, because he made a very great match ”(

Marquinhos (defender of Paris SG)
“A successful evening, we bring the victory home, with 4 more goals.
But we have to keep it simple, we learn from our mistakes, so we will stay humble, we know that we still have 90 minutes for another great battle.
We also have goals in League 1, and if we manage to keep this state of mind we know that we have great things to seek.
Today we have shown that when we want, when we play compact, as a unit, like a team, then we have the personality and the attitude to do great things.
We have to keep this state of mind, and not just take it out for the big matches.
We have to find this consistency even if it's difficult, we have to keep this state of mind and this attitude for all the matches of the season.
Plus tonight Kylian was in good shape, he shone, and when he shines it makes all the difference in important matches.
When the team is strong, it allows individuals to express themselves. "

Ronald Koeman (FC Barcelona coach)
“They were superior in the first half, they dominated us physically.
Equalization, of course it's been a problem, it's still a problem.
We didn't defend the action well, we didn't pay attention to the center ... these are things that can happen.
They proved in the second half to have a more complete team than ours.
We must accept it, and continue on the right path, improve things.
We knew that could happen to us, we were playing against a great team, through its players, recent experience ... We knew it.
There is still one game left, but after a 4-1 at home ... I'm not going to lie to you, our chances are very slim.
We are on the right track to change things, today's match (Tuesday) proved that we lack things to be at the best level in the Champions League ”(Movistar).
