10-man Bayern Munich survive late pressure from Paris Saint-Germain to hold strong for 2-1 win for Champions League, stretch their winning streak to 16 straight games. Na full drama from start to finish as Luis Diaz shine with two goals before he later collect red card wey turn am from hero to villain.
The first half na movie — Diaz score brace give Bayern early 2-0 lead, Dembele and Stanisic get goals disallowed for offside, and Serge Gnabry even knack both posts like he dey test woodwork quality. But the biggest twist come just before halftime when Diaz commit rough tackle on Hakimi and see straight red. From joy to wahala in minutes.
For second half, Bayern Munich park bus wella after the red card, allow PSG control ball, but still manage hold their line sharp. Joao Neves reduce the deficit with one sweet finish for 74th minute, but Vincent Kompany boys hold tight till the end to carry full three points go Germany. Na pure resilience show.
TPB VERDICT
PSG no resemble the same side wey win Champions League last season. Bayern just come bully them mentally and physically. The Germans play with confidence and discipline; their passes dey crisp, their press dey coordinated, and PSG midfield just dey chase shadows.
Plenty PSG players fall hand — Marquinhos give away ball for Diaz second goal like say him dey play charity match. Hakimi too nearly cost them another one before VAR cancel Stanisic goal. The whole team just dey off balance as Bayern control tempo like professionals.
Second half PSG get more possession after Bayern lose Diaz, but them no really threaten. Dembele and Hakimi injuries scatter their rhythm, and without them, the team just dey flat. Luis Enrique fit talk say injuries dey affect them, but e still clear say PSG lack that hunger wey dem show last season. No creativity, no bite — only sideways passes and frustration.
