WHAT HAPPENED?
Bayern Munich edged out PSG 1-0 courtesy of a first-half strike from South Korean defender Kim Min-jae, who capitalised on an error from Matvei Safonov inside their penalty box and headed the ball into the net. Things worsened for the Ligue 1 champions when star winger Ousmane Dembele was sent off after he picked up his second yellow card of the night.

WHAT LUIS ENRIQUE SAID
Speaking to Canal+, the former Barcelona and Spain boss said: "The responsibility is global, it’s on the whole team, for good or bad things. We shouldn’t look for culprits. We shouldn’t look for heroes or villains. There’s always this desire to look for someone to blame. If there’s someone to blame, it’s me. I’m responsible. There you go, you’ve found the culprit. From there, I accept all criticism."
