Kompany: "It was about small details"

"I’m rarely disappointed for long. It was close over the two games, we have to admit that they are a very good team, and we were lacking a little. But we go again. It was about small details, and the level of both teams was high. I have a lot of respect for our opponents, congratulations to them, but we will go again."

DFB Cup final on the horizon

Bayern do at least have another chance to win more silverware this season. On 23 May, they face VfB Stuttgart in the DFB Cup final in Berlin. They have a little over two weeks to prepare for that, with two Bundesliga games in between.

Laimer: "It really hurts"

"It’s hard when you go out in this way. Across the two games, it came down to a few moments. In the end, we couldn’t win, and it really hurts. It’s hard to say after the game exactly what moment decided it. But talking about what ifs doesn’t matter."

Neuer: "We weren't killers"

"We weren't killers. We had chances to win the game. We didn't have many clear-cut opportunities, but PSG were killers. We were close to the final but we couldn't get it done in the end. We have a final to look forward too, we are German champions, but we aren't thinking about that right now. We're disappointed."

Lethal

But Kane's fantastic strike wasn't enough for Bayern in the end.

Full-time: Bayern Munich 1-1 PSG - PSG win 6-5 on aggregate

Bayern are out of the Champions League despite Harry Kane's late equaliser. After an electric first leg, this was a far cagier affair, with PSG taking the lead inside three minutes through Ousmane Dembélé. Bayern huffed and puffed, but ultimately come up short, even though they can still be proud of their campaign.

Half-time: Bayern Munich 0-1 PSG

At the break, Bayern find themselves one goal behind on the night and two goals down on aggregate. The visitors took the lead inside three minutes through Ousmane Dembélé, and Manuel Neuer needed to produce a fantastic stop to keep out João Neves. At the other end, Jamal Musiala had Bayern's best chance when he forced a fantastic stop out of Matvéi Safónov. Work to do for Bayern in the second half, but there is still time left to turn this around.

Olise to be assist king?

As it stands, Olise leads the Champions League assists chart with eight, level with Real Madrid's Vinícius Júnior. Another one here would put him out on front on his own, and also four ahead of the next-closest rivals still in this season's competition: Kvaratskhelia and Leandro Trossard.

The players have been onto the field of play to take in their surroundings.

Arsenal await

Jan-Christian Dreesen: 'We need to create a great European night'

The Bayern CEO spoke of the importance of fans creating an atmosphere against PSG. "We need every voice on Wednesday. We need 100 per cent ‘Mia san Mia’, the full solidarity of our Bayern family and as many people as possible in red. The team showed in Paris that they can bounce back from setbacks and keep going. The Allianz Arena is a tough place to break down, and that’s exactly what Paris need to feel from kick-off. It’s only half-time. Now we need to create a great European night together in Munich," Dreesen (l.) told Bayern's official website.

Watch: Tah and Kompany speak ahead of PSG tie

Bayern defender Tah and head coach Kompany gave their thoughts ahead of tonight's Champions League semi-final second leg.

Following in the footsteps

After wrapping up the Bundesliga title, Vincent Kompany is now only three games away from etching his name further into club history by the end of the season. Should Bayern overcome PSG and beat Arsenal in the Champions League final, and beat VfB Stuttgart in the DFB Cup, the Belgian would become just the third Bayern boss to secure a treble after Jupp Heynckes (in 2012/13) and Hansi Flick (in 2019/20).

No new injury issues

Serge Gnabry aside, Kompany confirmed that Bayern have a full squad to choose from. That means Lennart Karl (pictured) could play some part after recovering from injury.

Warren Zaïre-Emery on facing Bayern

"We’ll have to double up or even triple up on them, and everyone will need to put in the effort together," the PSG midfielder said when asked about the second leg. "We’ll try to impose our game plan, press like we do in every match, and win back as many balls as possible. This team is built to attack, and that’s what we’ll try to do on Wednesday."

Luis Enrique on facing Bayern

PSG head coach Enrique also spoke ahead of the encounter. "When you play this type of match, against this opponent who is undoubtedly the strongest team we have ever faced, the first thing I want to convey is that we have a one-goal advantage, but that means nothing in football. We have the experience from last year. We are always looking to live up to expectations for our supporters."

Tah on support from the fans

"You certainly notice when everyone's in red. What I notice most is that special atmosphere. Everyone was more involved against Real [Madrid]. It gives a huge push when the whole stadium is behind us, that can't be underestimated."

Jonathan Tah on facing PSG

"I'm massively looking forward to this game. We're even more tense and focused, but that's outweighed by the excitement, especially after the first leg. It's going to be a lot of fun."

Kompany on Bayern's style

"Our mission is to win games. That's what it's all about. We've won many games, PSG too. In the end, it's about scoring one goal more than the opponent. If it can be done without conceding, that's good. But even more pragmatic is to win."

Kompany on the importance of the fans

"There is a good relationship between the team and the fans. At the start of the season, perhaps not many believed that we would make it to the final – but now we're here and have experienced many special moments. And I think the fans believe in us. We want to turn this into an unforgettable moment."

Vincent Kompany's thoughts ahead of the encounter

"With me, inner calm prevails," the Bayern head coach said during his pre-match press conference. "I try not to let the emotions from the game play a role too early. And I'm already thinking about what the last sentence could be to motivate the team one more time."

PSG held

Ahead of this second leg, PSG drew 2-2 with Lorient in Ligue 1. However, closest challengers Lens could also only manage a point at the weekend, meaning the Parisians still remain six points clear at the top of the table with three games left to play.

Goretzka 'really excited' for PSG challenge

"You could tell the guys were fired up. I'm really excited, things are going to get heated here on Wednesday [against PSG]. I'm really looking forward to the game, we want to reach the final. Now it's about regrouping, gathering our strength and giving it our all on Wednesday."

Kompany keen to learn lessons from Heidenheim draw

"Of course, we can do many things better, but we mustn't forget that the lads ultimately did everything they could to avoid losing the game [against Heidenheim]. We have to take that with us into the next match."

Out in front - just

Bayern may have lost the first leg but they still hold the upper hand in the overall head-to-head record, having won nine and lost eight of the teams' 17 meetings to date - including a 2-1 win in the league phase last November.

Kane surpasses Gerrard

In Paris, Bayern's star striker became the first Englishman to score in six consecutive Champions League outings, surpassing Steven Gerrard's record from the 2007/08 campaign.

100 and counting

Luis Díaz's second-half strike in the French capital lifted the Colombian onto 26 goals in all competitions this season. Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Díaz have now scored 101 goals between them in 2025/26.

PSG - the story so far

Paris Saint-Germain won the Champions League for the first time last season, but their title defence got off to a rocky start. After finishing 11th in the league phase, Luis Enrique's side had to go through the knockout phase play-offs, where they edged past league rivals Monaco 5-4 on aggregate. However, they made light work of English duo Chelsea (agg 8-2) and Liverpool (agg 4-0) before beating Bayern at the Parc des Princes.

Bayern - the story so far

Vincent Kompany's side dispatched Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, winning 2-1 in Spain before shading a thrilling return fixture 4-3 at the Allianz Arena. The six-time European champions thumped Atalanta 10-2 on aggregate in the last 16, having finished second in the league phase behind Arsenal. Prior to last week's semi-final first leg, a 3-1 loss to the London club in November had been their only defeat in the competition this season.

Hakimi sidelined

PSG have confirmed in a statement that full-back Achraf Hakimi (l.) "will be out of action for the next few weeks" after suffering an injury to his right thigh in the first leg in Paris, while reserve goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier is also sidelined after likewise hurting his right thigh in training on Wednesday.
