One of the things that Marcus Rashford was doing during Aston Villa’s Champions League loss to Paris Saint-Germain was brought to the attention of the television commentator, and it has caused fans to debate about it.
Following the spectacular evening of Champions League action that took place on Tuesday, which resulted in shocking defeats for both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, the remaining quarter-final first legs began on Wednesday night when they were scheduled to begin.
Aston Villa was defeated by Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 in the Parcs des Princes, after taking an early lead. Barcelona defeated Borussia Dortmund 4-0 at the Lluis Companys Olympic Stadium. Aston Villa also suffered a loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
Following the defeat of Villa, a piece of commentary from the match has gone viral on the internet, and it has caused supporters to feel a great deal of anxiety in advance of the second leg of the match, which will take place the following week.
The fact that the defender for Paris Saint-Germain, Nuno Mendes, scored a goal in the closing minute of the match means that Unai Emery’s team will have a challenging assignment ahead of them at Villa Park in the rematch. If they want to go to the semi-finals, they will have to face either Arsenal or Real Madrid.
One of the things that the Spaniard might try to do in order to get the gap down to two goals is to replace Rashford with Ollie Watkins, a striker for Villa who started the match on the bench on Wednesday against Manchester United.
During the match in Paris, Rashford was clearly having a difficult time, and he became clearly frustrated as he failed to make an impact in such an important match. Paul Robinson, who was broadcast live on BBC Radio 5 Live, was able to pick up on this fact.
It was said by the analyst that Marcus Rashford is becoming increasingly irritated. Both the ball and the service are not coming to him, and he is not receiving either.
One of Rashford’s fans posted the following on X in response to his performance and the obvious frustration he displayed: “Rashford caught a frustrated figure up front.” During those crucial moments of attack, he had very little support from his teammates. Villa are in need of a winger who is capable of consistently running down the channels.
The star player for Manchester United was blasted by another individual, who added, “Rashford is demonstrating exactly what he is tonight.” The act of running into defenders, failing to pursue them, and placing blame on everyone else.
Despite this, one individual expressed their disapproval of Emery’s choice to start the winger by saying, “If I were Ollie Watkins, I would be seriously p***** off.”
“Imagine literally dragging Aston Villa to Champions League qualification, being a massive part of them getting to the Quarters and then having to sit there and watch Rashford stroll about without a care in the world.”
In the match that will take place the following Tuesday, Villa will have the opportunity to make a comeback when they play the second leg of the match against the French champions in England.
