PSG absorbed Bayern Munich’s late surge and booked their place in the Champions League final, surviving a 1-1 second-leg draw at the Allianz Arena to go through 6-5 on aggregate.
Bayern refused to let the tie fade quietly. Harry Kane struck in injury time to earn the German side a draw on the night, but the goal arrived too late to change the bigger story. PSG, the defending champions, did enough across the two legs to edge one of Europe’s toughest tests and keep their title defence alive.
Key Facts
- PSG drew 1-1 with Bayern Munich in the second leg.
- The French side advanced 6-5 on aggregate.
- Harry Kane scored Bayern’s injury-time equaliser.
- PSG will face Arsenal in the final in Budapest.
The result underlines PSG’s ability to manage pressure as much as create it. Bayern chased the moment they needed in front of their home crowd, and reports indicate they forced PSG to defend deep in the closing stages. But knockout ties often turn on margins, and PSG protected theirs well enough to turn late stress into a winning outcome.
PSG did not need a perfect night in Munich — they needed a controlled one, and that proved enough to send them back to Europe’s biggest match.
Now the competition pivots to Budapest, where PSG will meet Arsenal for the trophy. That final carries obvious weight: PSG can defend their crown, while Arsenal get a shot at the biggest prize in club football. The buildup will focus on momentum, nerve and recovery, because after escaping Bayern’s last push, PSG now stand one match from cementing this run as something much bigger than a narrow semi-final victory.
