Overview
- PSG, which drew 1-1 in Munich on Wednesday after winning 5-4 in Paris, advanced 6-5 on aggregate with Ousmane Dembélé scoring in the 3rd minute and Harry Kane equalizing in stoppage time.
- Luis Enrique’s side managed long stretches without the ball through compact defending and sharp counters, with goalkeeper Matvey Safonov making key saves late on.
- Achraf Hakimi was out injured and 18-year-old Warren Zaïre-Emery covered at right-back, a switch that helped contain Bayern’s wide threats.
- Bayern protested several officiating calls in the return leg, including a non-awarded penalty for a handball by João Neves that multiple outlets described as a pivotal moment.
- Celebrations in Paris gave way to scattered clashes in some areas, with police reporting projectiles, small fires and interventions near the Parc des Princes and the Champs-Élysées as most fans marked the win peacefully.
