Two Aston Villa stars are given brutal 3/10 ratings by L'Equipe after PSG's late 3-1 victory in Paris.... as French press claim visitors 'refused to play and were understandably punished'

Two Aston Villa players have been savaged with dismal 3/10 scores in L'Equipe's notorious ratings after suffering defeat in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.

PSG left-back Nuno Mendes landed a devastating blow in stoppage time at the Parc des Princes to give his side 3-1 lead ahead of next week's second leg at Villa Park, capping off an excellent comeback after Morgan Rogers scored for the visitors in the first half.

Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia also netted on the night for the French giants, each scoring superb individual goals to help PSG gain full control.
