'No questions on Hakimi' - PSG boss Galtier

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:

Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)

69 mins: Julian Nagelsmann makes a change for Bayern Munich and brings on Leroy Sane to replace the goalscorer Eric Choupo-Moting.

That’s not exactly a downgrade is it?

Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)

67 mins: Eric Choupo-Moting now has four goals in six Champions League games this season. That’s a fine record for the striker who had to replace Robert Lewandowski.

PSG are pushing higher up the pitch now. They need to score twice to get back into this tie.

Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg)

64 mins: Save! There’s still time for PSG to get back into this tie. The French side win a corner that Messi whips into the box. Sergio Ramos is the only body making a run and he storms into the air to power a header at goal.

It’s a decent effort but comes too close to Yann Sommer who sticks out a hand and pushes it wide of goal.

GOAL! Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg) - Choupo-Moting, 61'⚽️

61 mins: No but Bayern can add to their lead! El Chadaille Bitshabu gives the ball to Marco Verratti inside his own box and the midfielder dallies too long in possession.

Thomas Muller pokes the ball away from him and gives it to Leon Goretzka who touches it towards goal before squaring a pass to Eric Choupo-Moting for the easiest of tap ins.

Bayern 0-0 PSG (1-0 agg)

60 mins: 30 minutes to play in Germany. Can PSG get themselves an equaliser and ignite some excitement into this match?

Bayern 0-0 PSG (1-0 agg)

56 mins: PSG will breathe a sigh of relief after that one. Based on what we’ve seen from the two fixtures in this tie another goal for the hosts will be enough.

It’s been a very close affair with chances few and far between. A two goal aggregate lead for Bayern would be huge.

NO GOAL! Bayern 0-0 PSG (1-0 agg)

53 mins: It’s chalked off! The VAR believes that Muller gets a touch on the ball and he was stood in an offside position when Musiala put it into the box.

PSG have a reprieve.

GOAL! Bayern 1-0 PSG (2-0 agg) - Choupo-Moting, 52'⚽️

52 mins: Bayern lead! Jamal Musiala is given the ball on the edge of the box and flicks it into the penalty area. Eric Choupo-Moting gets his head to the ball and guides it into the far bottom corner.

Thomas Muller was also in the box and stretched to meet it after Choupo-Moting’s header. It doesn’t look as though he’s touched it but VAR are checking for offside.

Bayern 0-0 PSG (1-0 agg)

48 mins: PSG have been knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage in four of the last six seasons. The two times they have progressed they went on to reach the semi-finals and the final.

The French side are still in this tie. One goal is all the need to force extra-time as it stands. Kylian Mbappe sees the ball drop fo him inside the box but his snapshot is blocked by the nearest defender, De Ligt I think.

Second half: Bayern 0-0 PSG (1-0 agg)

Christophe Galtier has made another change at the break and has replaced substitute Nordi Mukiele with El Chadaille Bitshabu. Mukiele must have an injury as he came on to replace Marquinhos in the first half.

No changes for Bayern.
