PSG to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals | OneFootball

PSG will face Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals after the Bundesliga side eliminated Real Madrid tonight at Munich’s Allianz Arena. Arda Güler opened the scoring inside a minute with a long-range chip after an unlikely blunder from Manuel Neuer.

Güler’s stroke of genius set the tone for a gung-ho five-goal first half with Aleksandar Pavlovic, Güler again, Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappé all on the scoresheet with both sides on equal terms on aggregate (4-4) following last week’s 2-1 away win to Bayern Munich. In the second half, Real Madrid substitute Eduardo Camavinga was sent off after a succession of two yellow cards in eight minutes.

Three minutes after Camavinga’s dismissal, Luis Diaz and Jamal Musiala combined for the Colombian international to rifle a right-footer dagger into the Real Madrid net, edging Bayern Munich back into aggregate lead (5-4). Michael Olise doubled Munich’s lead with a neatly-taken curler in injury-time.

Bayern Munich and PSG will then meet for the Champions League semi-finals. Luis Enrique’s Les Parisiens will host the Rekordmeister on Tuesday, April 14 before the return leg at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, May 6. PSG and Bayern Munich already met this season, and Vincent Kompany was on the winning side courtesy of Luis Diaz’s first-half brace.
