"PSG is a project that has existed for a long time, while we have only just started, we will improve," said Xabi Alonso, the Madrid coach.

Before adding: " We're learning and we'll see what we can do better to be among the best Europeans next season," he concluded. PSG are still aiming for an unprecedented five-goal victory and will find the English side Chelsea on their way to the final .
