‘Pinnacle of art and culture’: Europe’s media on nine-goal PSG-Bayern thriller
Champions League semi-final first leg was described as ‘pure madness’ and ‘football in its finest essence’
French media were in thrall to a victory hailed as a milestone performance, calling Paris Saint-Germain’s 100th win in the Champions League as “one of the finest” in the club’s history.
Bayern Munich will be hoping for a repeat of their goal bonanza when they host the holders in the semi-final return leg next Wednesday, with Tuesday’s 5-4 loss in Paris breaking the competition record for most goals in a last-four game.
