PSG defeated Bayern 5-2 in the Champions League semi-final first leg after Bayern led early and PSG turned the match around in Paris.
Paris Saint-Germain beat Bayern Munich 5-2 in the Champions League semi-final first leg at Parc des Princes on April 28, turning a match that Bayern started well into a convincing PSG win.
UEFA and both clubs had confirmed the fixture in official pre-match coverage, and live reports from The Guardian and The Times later said PSG came through as the 5-2 winners after Bayern led early.
The first leg had already swung wildly before the final score settled. Earlier live updates reported PSG leading 3-2 at half time after Ousmane Dembélé’s stoppage-time penalty restored the home side’s advantage. By full time, PSG had extended that lead and taken control of the tie.
The result gives PSG a strong position heading into the second leg, while Bayern are left needing a major response in the return match in Munich.
For live-match purposes, the key storyline is now complete: Bayern struck first, PSG answered, and Paris finished the night with a three-goal margin.
Further official match reports may follow, but the live result is settled and the tie has now clearly swung in PSG’s favor.
