Bayern Munich-Psg, fear in the pre-match.

Approximately 1,000 fans heading to the Allianz Arena for the Champions League semifinal return match between Bayern Munich and Psg (scheduled for tonight at 9 p.m.) were forced off a subway train in Munich due to a fire start.

Munich police explained on X that the convoy, with about 1,000 supporters on board, was evacuated at Dietlindenstrasse station to allow firefighters to intervene. Authorities also reported heavy repercussions on roads and traffic in the area.

The incident resulted in the stop of the U6 line, one of the main connections to the Allianz Arena. According to an initial reconstruction reported by Bild, the alarm was reportedly caused by an electronic cigarette, forcing the train to be withdrawn from service.

The anticipation for this match is very high: tonight’s challenge comes after the spectacular 5-4 first leg at the Parc des Princes, which saw the Parisians win the first round in a match full of emotions and twists and turns. Bayern Munich then needs a comeback to snatch a pass to the final in Budapest, with Vincent Kompany called upon to turn the tide after last season’s quarterfinal elimination. PSG, on the other hand, would need only a draw to return to the Champions League final act.

The Parisians will, however, have to deal with a heavy absence: Hakimi, one of the most dangerous men in Luis Enrique’s team, was stopped by an injury suffered in the first leg.
