ECAM eng 1 rev pressurized. Complied with ECAM. Requested lower altitude and priority handling. Determined based on our position and drift down QRH chart that we would be above terrain. We also verified this by leveling at FL190 and selection 280 kts. We then referenced the QRH; briefed the flight attendants; and proceeded directly to ZZZ. We requested XXL and emergency equipment. Captain performed the landing. Upon exiting the runway at XY the crew noticed brake temps in excess of 500c. We then requested to continue north as ATC instruction were south on Z. This was to avoid more braking and downhill taxi. We then came to a slow rolling stop with minimal breaking on taxiway AX short of XXR. At that point left side brakes were around 800c and right side 700c. Crew used right brake only in an attempt to get the left cooling as soon as possible. Briefed the FA and passengers that it would be a little while before we could continue and started coordinating with operations and maintenance.
