Bayern Munich Was Arrogant Against Paris Saint-Germain

It's been an up-and-down season for Paris Saint-Germain but when the bright lights of the UEFA Champions League are on, they've delivered more often than not. On this episode of PSG Talking, I'm joined by https://twitter.com/ofthedoor1 (Guillaume Delaporte) and https://twitter.com/COKllstrm (Carl-Oscar Källström) to break down PSG's surprising https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/match/2029488--bayern-vs-paris/ (3-2 victory over Bayern Munich) in the quarter-final of the Champions League.

After the match, much of the conversation centered around who wasn't on the pitch for Bayern. Robert Lewandowski was out injured and many speculated that if he were fit, he would have finished several of Bayern's scoring opportunities. However, PSG was without Marco Verratti, Leandro Paredes, and was down to their https://psgtalk.com/2021/04/official-lineup-neymar-and-mbappe-set-to-lead-psgs-attack-for-the-champions-league-showdown-against-bayern-munich/ (third-string full-backs). Should Mauricio Pochettino and PSG get more credit for this result considering who they were without?
