"Paris Saint-Germain clinched a 1-1 draw at Allianz Arena to win the semi-final tie 6-5 on aggregate. It took added time in the second half for Bayern to find the equaliser as PSG delivered a resilient performance after going ahead in the third minute of the game. Vincent Kompany's men have played exhilarating football this season, scoring goals at an incredible rate. However, they were completely stifled by Paris Saint-Germain."
"They struggled to create chances consistently on Wednesday as PSG adopted a more conservative approach than the one they had in the first leg. Despite the disappointing exit from the Champions League, Bayern can still have a good end to the season if they manage to beat VfB Stuttgart in the DFB Pokal. The Bundesliga title is sealed, so Die Roten can end the campaign with a domestic double."
"Bayern have to ensure they add more depth to the squad during the summer transfer window. Kompany has done well with a smaller squad this season, but adding more quality to the squad will help him to take the team to the next level. Former Bayern CEO Oliver Kahn believes Bayern need a specific profile in the midfield to control the game against European rivals."
"Kahn insisted that Bayern need a midfielder like Thiago Alcantara, someone who is very strong technically. The former Bayern goalkeeper believes that the current squad has very similar profiles of midfielders, so they need someone who is very sound technically. "The types of players in Bayern's current midfield are very similar in their style. In my opinion, Thiago was a very important factor because he was completely different. His special technique, his ability to outmaneuver opponents, his exceptional passes. This type of player is currently missing.""
PSG secured a 1-1 draw at Allianz Arena to win the semi-final tie 6-5 on aggregate, with Bayern’s equaliser coming only after added time in the second half. PSG took the lead in the third minute and maintained a resilient, more conservative approach that limited Bayern’s chance creation. Bayern’s season featured high scoring, but they were stifled by PSG’s defensive control. Bayern can still finish strongly by beating VfB Stuttgart in the DFB Pokal, with the Bundesliga title already secured and a domestic double possible. Bayern also need squad depth and a midfield profile that can control European matches, with Oliver Kahn calling for a technically strong midfielder like Thiago Alcantara.
