PSG woke up when he was subbed on.

They are better with Mbappe than without him”, the Bayern boss said. “In the second leg, we’ll have good ideas to counter him and can hurt them in attack. It’s clear that Mbappe can unlock any game.” Reflecting on his team’s overall performance, Nagelsmann said: “We played really well in the first 25 minutes and had very good control.

We could still have played more straight forward towards the goal. There was a feeling that we were very surprised we had the ball so much and Paris chose to sit back. «I knew that they always defended deeply, but I was a bit surprised they were so passive, so deep and not designed to win the ball at all.” For PSG, it was a third successive defeat and it was inflicted on them by one of their former players, Kingsley Coman.
