Bayern vs PSG Match Report

The Allianz Arena was buzzing with support for the home team before the kick-off. The game started, and it took just 2 minutes for the visitors to score against the home team, with Ousmane Dembele converting Kvara’s cross for a goal. The crowd wasn’t backing down from supporting Bayern even though their team conceded early on in the game. 

A series of attacks from both teams followed in the next few minutes, without any fruition from either side. A major controversial moment in the game came in the 29th minute when Nuno Mendes stopped the ball with his hand, making the Bayern players storm in the referee’s face, asking for the player to be red-carded. Nuno was deemed clear of a red-card worthy foul. 

Another controversial decision came in the 31st minute, when Vitinha cleared the ball from PSG’s half, and in the process, it touched the arm of Joao Neves, making Bayern players protest for a penalty. 

Overall, the game saw usual attacks from PSG and Bayern, but none came as too much of a threat, with both defenses and goalies dealing with the opposition’s attack. 

Bayern’s only goal came in the 90+4th minute of the game when Kane pulled one back for the Bavarians. However, by then, it was already too late for Kompany’s men to turn the tide around.
