The Frenchman Bradley Barcola, a Paris Saint-Germain player, spoke about his team's 5-2 victory over Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16, emphasizing that the team played a strong match despite some mistakes that need to be corrected before the return leg.

In his statements after the match, Barcola said: "We prepared well for this match, and we knew we had to play with intensity from the start. We succeeded in scoring early, but then we made some small mistakes that led to us conceding goals, and this is what we need to correct."

The Paris Saint-Germain player continued: "Overall, the performance was very good. Physically, we have been in good shape for a while, so I don't think the issue was on that front. Today, we were in very good condition, and we must continue in this way."

Barcola added, speaking about his goal in the match: "I was happy with this goal. I always work towards scoring in the Champions League, and this goal was important for me."
