Bayern/PSG – Final, Pacho, Kvaratskhelia…the hits and misses! | OneFootball

This Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain drew 1-1 and qualified (5-6 on aggregate, Bayern/PSG highlights) against Bayern Munich in the second leg of the 2025-2026 Champions League semi-final at the Allianz Arena. Here are the tops and flops from this qualification.

Tops –

❤️ Reaching the final.

It cannot be overlooked, because it is a major achievement. It is the second time in a row, and this time by eliminating a very great team. There was suffering, and that is normal. Paris also showed real strength to keep hoping to win the title again.

Defensive strength.

We all loved the spectacle in the first leg, but this time PSG made it a priority to leave Bayern frustrated. That prevented them from setting the stadium and the match alight with a goal. Even if the Munich side had chances, which was to be expected given their attacking quality, they were much rarer and Paris held firm impressively for a long time. Without forgetting to strike at times as well, only to unfortunately come up against a great Manuel Neuer.

Willian Pacho.

In a more solid PSG side this time, Willian Pacho was particularly impressive. The 24-year-old defender was imperious and once again confirmed his place among the best.

Warren Zaïre-Emery.

The 20-year-old midfielder, or rather right-back, was a question mark for this semi-final. But he clearly confirmed his versatility and that last year’s doubts are far behind him. The academy product is not afraid of these big occasions and still has a huge career ahead of him.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Decisive once again, hardworking once again, magical at times once again, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia once more confirmed that he is a benchmark in his position. The 25-year-old forward is a real asset for PSG, even if he could have scored from one of those chances he is known for, but on this one he was a little clumsy at the end.

Flops –

😡None.

Not everything was perfect, but it was a huge collective performance delivered in Munich.
