In case of success, we now know that PSG could find in the quarterfinals either the Brazilians of Flamengo, assured of the first place in group C even before their last match on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday against Los Angeles, Bayern Munich.
Indeed, to everyone’s surprise, Bayern Munich, who was assured of the qualification for the round of 16, lost this Tuesday evening the first place in group D against Benfica, which won thanks to a goal from the Norwegian Andreas Schjelderup in the 13th minute.
The Germans ran in vain after the scoring in an overwhelming heat of 36 ° C.
