Paris Saint-Germain star Vitinha insisted his side remain wary of the threat posed by Champions League quarter-final opponents Liverpool despite the Anfield club coming into the heavyweight tie on the back of a 0-4 thrashing at the hands of Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter-final.

“Liverpool are Liverpool, even if they are not in ideal form. They are still a great team,” Vitinha told reporters on Tuesday, the eve of the first leg between the sides at the Parc des Princes. “It will be a great match here, and tomorrow we will need to be at 100 percent. It will be a very difficult game,” he added.
