What happened
Bayern entered the second leg trailing 5-4 from the first match in Paris and needed a strong comeback at the Allianz Arena. PSG took an early lead through Ousmane Dembele after an assist from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, putting Bayern under immediate pressure. Harry Kane scored in the 94th minute, assisted by Alphonso Davies, but Bayern could only draw 1-1 on the night. The result sent PSG through to the UEFA Champions League final with a 6-5 aggregate win.
Chance analysis
This is a major competitive setback for Bayern because they failed to overturn a one-goal deficit at home and conceded early, which damaged their game state. For PSG, surviving a high-scoring semi-final and advancing to the final is a strong positive signal for squad resilience and attacking threat.
PSG gain a significant uplift from reaching the Champions League final, while Bayern absorb the negative impact of elimination.
