FC Barcelona relied on the high performance of their key players to return with an advantage from their visit to Paris, and one of those men was Ronald Araújo

Ronald Araújo went back to have a night of those. The Uruguayan, headline in the centre of the defence of the FC Barcelona this Wednesday in the field of Paris Saint-Germain, went a differential factor in the Barcelona triumph (2-3) in the gone of the quarter-finals of the Champions League, supporting every time that it could to Jules Koundé in the control of Kylian Mbappé, as well as taking care the movements of the mediocampistas Parisian.

Although certainly it did not have to lidiar with a '9' classical, only until the entry of Gonçalo Bouquets to the 85', Araújo was precise in each defensive action that need him, especially in the minute 70, with 2-2 in the marker, when the ingresado Bracola had a very clear opportunity to put again to his up in the marker. The central, very to his style, recovered of big form and finish blocking the finish of the French, which already was to very few metres of Ter Stegen.

Like this, the charrúa went back to show that it is the best 'corrector' of the world probably, or at least can be in a line of very first level beside head offices like Virgil go Djik and Rúben Days, those who also are very recognised by his capacity to close played in the last moment, still after having lost the initial duel. In fact, Pau Cubarsí also has a similar style, something that showed in a played with Kylian Mbappé, and with a mentor like Araújo at the side, the Barça can consolidate a couple of head offices to which will be very difficult to surpass.

A return to the titularity in style

The work of the third captain of the Barça was magnify, remembering besides that was returning to the XI of the Barça after his rest in the party in front of the UD The Palms, a measure of caution that had Xavi after the return anticipated of the defence when it was concentrated with Uruguay in the most recent stop of selections. Araújo Has dragged some annoyances in one of his knees, in addition to having overload muscular in some moments of the course, but in front of the PSG saw a full player and that delivered confidence to his mates in each played.
