PSG triumphs over Bavaria: Musiala is seriously injured in the quarter -finals!

In the quarterfinals of the World Cup, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) defeated 2-0 on July 5, 2025 in Atlanta Bayern Munich and thus qualified for the semi-finals. The goals for the French scored Désiré Doué in the 78th minute and Ousmane Dembélé in the 96th minute. Both teams had to have one less player on the pitch in the final phase of the game: Willian Pacho was put in red in the 90th+2 minute due to a great game in the 82nd minute and Lucas Hernández. The game took place in front of 66,937 spectators in the air-conditioned Mercedes-Benz stage.

Bayern Munich had dominated the first half of the game and hardly let PSG develop. The biggest chances for the Munich came through a header from Harry Kane in the 38th minute and a shot from Jamal Musiala, who injured himself in the 40th minute after a collision with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Musiala, who had recently returned to the starting eleven after a three -month injury break, finally had to be removed with a stretcher after the suspicion of a serious broken leg passed. It is not yet clear whether it will be out for a long time.

dramatic game course and red cards

In the second half, the momentum slightly shifted in favor of PSG. Manuel Neuer, the goalkeeper for Bavaria, saved Bradley Barcola in the 49th minute and was lucky in the 74th minute that Dembélé missed the orphaned gate. After Doué scored the first goal for the Parisians in the 78th minute, the game changed in favor of PSG. Despite the majority of the red cards for Pacho and Hernández, Bavaria had no way to achieve the balance, and instead had to accept the 0: 2 by Dembélé in added time.

This game also marked the last encounter for Thomas Müller in the Bayern jersey, whose career at the German record champion came to an end in this dramatic game. The trainer of Bavaria, Vincent Kompany, commented on the injuries of his players and the dramatic turn of the game immediately after the game. PSG, on the other hand, under the direction of coach Enrique, will meet the winner of the game between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in the semifinals.

Bayern will try to draw the teachings from this game while focusing on the rest of the season, especially since the violation of Musiala and the loss of another game are particularly painful in a decisive phase of the season. The difficulties with the lawn in the stadium that both teams had to struggle can also be seen as an additional factor for the high number of injuries.
