Bayern Munich vs PSG LIVE score: Champions League result and reaction as Messi and Mbappe crash out
Bayern Munich 2-0 PSG (3-0 agg): Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe exit the Champions League at the last-16 stage once again
Bayern Munich forward Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting scored against his former club and Serge Gnabry added a late second as the Germans beat PSG 2-0 on Wednesday to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
The 33-year-old Choupo-Moting, who played for PSG from 2018-20, tapped in from a Leon Goretzka assist in the 61st minute.
Substitute Gnabry struck on the break in the 89th minute to seal the hosts’ 3-0 aggregate win following their 1-0 victory in the first leg in Paris.
The result established Bayern as one of the title favourites going into the last eight and left PSG’s star-studded squad including world champion Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe without a shot at Europe’s premier club trophy for another year.
Relive all the action from the Champions League last-16 as Bayern Munich end PSG’s Champions League dreams:
Full-time: Bayern 2-0 PSG (3-0 agg)
90+5 mins: Bayern Munich march on. In truth they have been the better team across both of these legs and have despatched Paris Saint-Germain three goals to nil.
The superstars of the French league could do nothing to penetrate the German champions’ defence tonight and goals from Eric Choupo-Moting and Serge Gnabry were enough for them to reach the last eight.

90+3 mins: Leroy Sane flicks a pass into the box and almost earns Sadio Mane a goal but the forward pulls away from the ball as he sees Gianluigi Donnarumma charging him down.
The tie is won and Mane isn’t risking another injury in a tangle with the big goalkeeper.

GOAL! Bayern 2-0 PSG (3-0 agg) - Gnabry, 89’⚽️
89 mins: Joshua Kimmich recovers the ball for Bayern Munich and gets it to substitute Joao Cancelo. Cancelo threads a lovely pass up to fellow sub Serge Gnabry who carries the ball into the box then chips it over the goalkeeper to win the game and the tie.
Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)
87 mins: Alphonso Davies tracks Kylian Mbappe as PSG work the ball down the left wing. It gets pulled back into the penalty area and looks to be setting Mbappe up for a shot only for Davies to lunge across him and poke the ball clear.
Great defending.
Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)
84 mins: PSG’s final changes see Hugo Ekitike and Juan Bernat come on for Vitinha and Nuno Mendes. PSG have had the majority of possession in this game but haven’t been able to come alive inside Bayern’s final third.
Six minutes plus stoppage time to play.

78 mins: Time is running away from PSG here. If anything Bayern have become more convincing since they doubled their lead in this tie and PSG have begun to fade.
Especially in belief. PSG already look beaten.

75 mins: Nearly! Leroy Sane is fed the ball and brings it into the penalty area. He’s got options to his right but decides to go it alone and scuffs an effort wide of the nearest post.
Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)
72 mins: Christophe Galtier looks a little bewildered. He’ll have had his plans to take Bayern Munich but nothing is going PSG’s way tonight.
Bayern have been defensively brilliant - excepting the mistake from Yann Sommer.
