Bayern Munich secured a gritty 1-0 win against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, with South Korean defender Kim Min-jae delivering the decisive blow in a match packed with drama.
PSG’s night turned sour when Ousmane Dembélé received a second yellow card for a reckless tackle in the 57th minute, leaving the French giants scrambling with 10 players. Bayern capitalized on the chaos as Kim nodded home from a corner after PSG goalkeeper Matvei Safonov misjudged the cross.
Manuel Neuer, Bayern’s legendary shot-stopper, kept the Bavarians in control with key saves, including a stunning stop against Jamal Musiala. Despite late pressure, PSG—now 26th in the standings—failed to equalize, deepening their Champions League woes with a third loss this season.
The victory propels Bayern closer to automatic qualification for the knockout stages, while PSG faces an uphill battle to salvage their campaign. Next up for Bayern: a Bundesliga showdown against Borussia Dortmund this Saturday!
