There was confusion before kickoff in the second leg of the quarterfinal between Aston Villa and Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday when the anthem for the second-tier Europa League competition appeared to be played by mistake as players from both teams lined up.<br />
A minute or so later, the more famous Champions League anthem was finally played at Villa Park 鈥� by which the players were almost ready for the kickoff. In the crowd was Prince William, the heir to the throne and a die-hard Villa fan.<br /></p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-binary field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img src="/sites/default/files/2025/04/15/4592395-1704053895.jpg" width="1130" height="753" alt="" title="PSG鈥檚 Achraf Hakimi, right falls after a challenge by Aston Villa鈥檚 John McGinn during their Champions League quarterfinal second leg soccer match at the Villa Park stadium, in Birmingham, Apr. 15, 2025.
