Prince William revealed he wanted Prince George to experience 'a big away night in Europe' as the royals attended Aston Villa's Champions League quarter-final against PSG.

The pair went through an emotional rollercoaster during the first half of the match at the Parc des Princes in Paris.

Prince William and George launched into celebrations when Morgan Rogers gave Aston Villa a first half lead against PSG, only for the hosts to equalise through a superb Desire Doue strike.

It would ultimately be a disappointing night for Aston Villa, who were beaten 3-1 in the French capital.

The Prince of Wales had joined TNT Sports pundits Rio Ferdinand and Ally McCoist ahead of taking his seat for the first leg.

Prince William has been seen watching Aston Villa throughout their Champions League run and was invited to the quarter-final first leg by PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

He explained how the tie would help to create 'special memories' with Prince George.

In response to Ferdinand's question as to whether it was a 'lads' trip', Prince William insisted he was on his 'best behaviour' in the French capital.

'I'm not sure how many Villa fans there will be but they will make themselves well known,' Prince William said.

'I have got my son here too so I am on best behaviour but 43 years since this has happened and I want George to experience a night out in a big competition, those memories are really important to create and bringing him away is important.

'I am open to who they support, I am bias but they come to games with Villa so it will likely be Villa, but I have left the other two at home probably watching on TV. We will see who they support.'

Prince William, who also serves as the FA president, predicted Unai Emery's side would secure a 2-1 victory in the first leg to boost their hopes of reaching the semi-finals.

He, however, admitted to being 'pretty terrified' ahead of facing the French champions with PSG having impressed throughout the Champions League to date.

'It has been a while coming so it is a big game, 43 years since this happened, but I am confident and excited by the prospect,' he told TNT Sports. 'I am wearing all my clothes and bits and pieces and have done my routines.
