Expert recap and game analysis of the Paris Saint-Germain vs. Bayern Munich Uefa Champions League game from November 4, 2025 on ESPN.

CM: Vitinha — 7.2: Blown away in the opening period, with Bayern having plenty of joy when they overloaded the slight Portuguese midfielder between the lines. However, Vitinha touched the ball more than anyone and was incisive in the second period.

Substitute Joao Neves gave PSG hope with his 74th-minute volley, but Bayern held on for an important league-phase win. It was a 16th consecutive victory in all competitions, extending their record for a team in Europe’s top five leagues.

It is the first time in Champions League history that a player has scored two goals and been shown a red card in the same half of a game. The red card didn't affect the result as Bayern won 2-1 to make it 16 straight wins this season and hand PSG their first defeat in four group games so far.

Luis Díaz, who somehow has been getting stick for his lack of production this season at Bayern, scored his ninth goal of the young season not even four minutes past the opening whistle. By the half-hour mark he’d nicked the ball off Marquinhos and punched in a second, and the Bavarians were on their way.

PSG: The home side will be without defender Ilya Zabarnyi due to suspension after he was sent off against Leverkusen, so Marquinhos should join Willian Pacho in the heart of defence. Desire Doue is also out with a thigh injury.

Bayern broke the deadlock after just four minutes, punishing sloppy PSG play with Diaz scrambling the ball home after Michael Olise was initially denied
