Bayern Munich: Takeaways from 2-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain
"The 28-year-old Colombian was the architect of the home team's demise. He opened the scoring for Bayern in the 4th minute of play and doubled the advantage just past the half-hour mark. However, in the added time of the first half, alarm bells went off in the Bayern camp when Diaz, who had initially been shown a yellow card for a foul on Achraf Hakimi, was eventually given his marching orders after VAR intervention, which upgraded the card to red."
"So far this season, Bayern Munich have been dominating games by playing a scintillating brand of attacking football. A key component of their domination has been the pressing and counter-pressing system, which Vincent Kompany has deployed to suffocate the opposition. For the first 45-odd minutes on Tuesday, the mighty PSG appeared to be just another victim of the Bayern press as the visitors were creating chances at will."
Bayern Munich secured a 2-1 victory over PSG at the Parc des Princes with Luis Diaz scoring twice in the first half. Diaz received a red card after VAR upgraded an initial yellow for a foul on Achraf Hakimi, forcing Bayern to play more than 45 minutes with ten men. Bayern conceded only once in the second half and held out for the win. Vincent Kompany’s team combines a high-pressing, counter-pressing attacking approach with the capacity to defend resolutely when reduced to ten players. The result underscores adaptability and defensive discipline under pressure.
