Bayern win but lose

-

After Neymar missed several chances to finish off defending champions Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain were left clinging to a 1-0 home defeat that neverthele­ss sealed the French club’s second straight Champions League semifinal yesterday. Bayern had to score twice after losing 3-2 in Germany in the first leg of their quarterfin­al and survived several scares from Neymar in the first half before largely taking control in the second. But without the prolific Robert Lewandowsk­i, the six-time champions could not add to Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting’s first-half goal against his former club. Chelsea also reached the last four, losing 1-0 to Porto but advancing 2-1 on aggregate.
