PSG 0-1 Bayern Munich: Player ratings as defending champions crash out of the competition | UEFA Champions League 2020-21

  

A first-half goal by Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting helped Bayern Munich pick up a 1-0 away win over PSG in the UEFA Champions League, but it was not enough to see the Bavarians progress to the semifinals.
Both sides fashioned good chances in the early stages of the game, with Kylian Mbappe and Joshua Kimmich seeing shots go narrowly wide.
Mauricio Pochettino has deployed his side in low mid-blocks in their UEFA Champions League knockout games this term. It was more of the same as Bayern Munich dominated proceedings, while PSG exploited the visitors' highline with the pace of Neymar and Mbappe.
The Brazil international had four great chances in the space of five minutes but forced Manuel Neuer into saves with the first two, while the woodwork denied him twice.
Bayern Munich went ahead through Choupo-Moting, who showed great awareness to head the ball home after Keylor Navas had saved from Kingsley Coman.
The goal sparked the Bundesliga giants into action, and they ended the first half in the ascendancy, with David Alaba forcing a save from Navas.

Th Austria international had the first chance of the second half and dragged a shot narrowly wide shortly before he received a booking for a foul.
Bayern Munich continued to dominate proceedings, while PSG posed a threat on the counter. Angel Di Maria proved to be the biggest threat in the second half and went close on a number of occasions.
The hosts had the ball in the back of the net through Kylian Mbappe, but it was rightly chalked off for offside.
Some last-gasp defending by PSG in the dying stages saw them scale through to the next round, while the defending champions were knocked out.
Despite not being as enthralling as the first leg at Bayern Munich, this return leg still offered plenty of excitement and goalmouth action. Here is a rundown of how both sets of players fared in the match.
PSG player ratings against Bayern Munich
Keylor Navas - 8/10

The PSG goalkeeper thwarted Bayern Munich on several occasions

Keylor Navas was kept busy by Bayern Munich just like he was in the first leg. The 34-year-old made five saves in the game but could do nothing about the goal that came off one of his stops.

Abdou Diallo - 6/10
Diall  o struggled to keep track of Leroy Sane for most of the game. He was substituted in the 58th minute due to an injury.

---

Presnel Kimpembe - 6.5/10
Kimpembe was named stand-in captain for PSG in place of the injured Marquinhos. He was easily overpowered by Bayern Munich's goal but, other than that, put no foot wrong and helped repel the visitors'attacks.
