TL;DR · WeSearch summary

The first half alone was crazy, with Harry Kane giving Bayern the lead from a penalty only for Kvaratskhelia to equalise before Joao Neves headed the hosts in front at an enthralled Parc des Princes. Michael Olise made it 2-2, but a Dembélé penalty in first-half stoppage time had the reigning champions back ahead at the interval. Kvaratskhelia, surely the standout player in this season's Champions League, and Dembélé both then scored again to have PSG seemingly out of sight, only for Dayot Upamecano to pull one back before Luis Diaz made it 5-4.
