Paris Saint-Germain faced off against Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena earlier tonight as they focused on overturning a 1-0 deficit from the first leg of their UEFA Champions League last 16 tie. The French outfit made a decent start to the game but were held to a scoreless draw at the half-time break.
