Defending champions Paris St Germain battled past visitors Bayern Munich 5-4 in a record-breaking Champions League semi-final first leg. PSG came from a goal down to lead 5-2, but Bayern struck twice in three minutes to improve their chances for next week's return leg.
The match pitted the most attacking teams of the season against each other, with PSG coach Luis Enrique praising the game's relentless pace. Harry Kane converted a 17th-minute penalty to become the first English player to net in six successive Champions League fixtures.
PSG scored again in the 33rd with Joao Neves' glancing header, but Bayern drew level with Michael Olise's shot after being given far too much space. PSG were awarded a stoppage-time penalty, and Ousmane Dembele powered his spot kick past Manuel Neuer to put them back in front.
PSG picked up where they left off after halftime, carving out a two-goal lead with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's 56th-minute effort and Dembele's low drive that went in off the post two minutes later.
Bayern refused to buckle, fighting back with two goals of their own in a three-minute span from Dayot Upamecano and Luis Diaz. PSG's Senny Mayulu rattled the woodwork in the 86th minute as both sides kept up the frenetic pace until the final whistle.
