Ousmane Dembélé has special memories of the double confrontation against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals of the Champions League. In an interview given to France Footballthe 2025 Ballon d’Or even designates the spectacular first leg won 5-4 by PSG at the Parc des Princes as the peak of its season. “ The double confrontation against Bayern Munich. She left her mark on the Champions League. Especially the first meeting which was incredible. The first leg, at the Parc des Princes, is perhaps the best match of my season, even if I started badly », Says the French international, who had missed a huge opportunity at the start of the match before recovering.
Dembélé ultimately played a major role in this completely crazy evening. After delivering the corner victoriously taken by João Neves, the Parisian striker converted a penalty just before the break to allow PSG to lead 3-2, before scoring again in the 58th minute to make the score 5-2. “ First opportunity, I miss it. But it was the best match of my season », he says with a smile. Bayern then returned to 5-4 before Paris maintained its advantage, then qualified for the return to Germany thanks to a draw (1-1).
