PSG have exited the Champions League in the R16 for the fifth time in seven seasons. PSG had reached the final in 2019-20 and the semis in 2020-21. Before the 2016-17 season, they had bowed out in the quarters in four successive campaigns.

Bayern keeper Sommer was tested early on by PSG before Jamal Musiala had a superb chance for the hosts. Sommer nearly gifted PSG a presentable chance as former Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt made a clearance off the line. In the second half, VAR ruled out Bayern's opener before Choupo-Moting scored from Leon Goretzka's cross. Joao Cancelo assisted Gnabry in the 89th minute thereafter.

PSG conceded at least once in all eight of their Champions League matches this season. As per Opta, it's the first time they have failed to keep a clean sheet in a single campaign in the competition.

Tottenham Hotspur's campaign ended disappointingly. Spurs failed to overturn a 1-0 deficit in the last 16 versus Italian side AC Milan. Cristian Romero was sent off late on after receiving a second yellow card for a poor challenge on Theo Hernandez. Spurs weren't at their best and hardly tested Milan. Their only hope now remains in securing the top four in the Premier League.
