How did the match pan out?
The match was lively throughout and lived up to the billing. PSG will be ruing the missed chances in the first half, especially the one by Angel Di Maria. Bayern went ahead in the 59th minute after Joshua Kimmich found Coman unmarked at the back post. Coman steadied himself and sent a powerful downward header past Keylor Navas.
