Bayern Beat PSG 2-1 in Paris as PSG Confirm Multi-Week Absences for Hakimi, Dembélé and Mendes

Bayern's 16th straight win put them top of the group after a match marred by Luis Díaz’s red-card tackle on Achraf Hakimi.

Overview

  • At the Parc des Princes on November 4, Bayern Munich defeated Paris Saint‑Germain 2-1, handing the holders their first Champions League loss of the season.
  • Luis Díaz scored twice before being sent off following VAR review for a dangerous tackle on Achraf Hakimi, who left the field in tears.
  • PSG issued a medical communiqué confirming Hakimi has a severe left ankle sprain, Ousmane Dembélé sustained a left calf lesion, and Nuno Mendes suffered a left knee sprain, with all three out for several weeks.
  • João Neves pulled one back for PSG in the 74th minute, but Manuel Neuer’s late saves preserved Bayern’s lead and the visitors finished atop the group.
  • Post-match reaction focused on the foul that injured Hakimi and on Bayern defender Josip Stanisic’s joking remark about Díaz, which was reported as drawing criticism.
