French football club Paris Saint-Germain eliminated German team Bayern Munich with a 3-3 aggregate score Tuesday to advance to the UEFA Champions League semifinals. 

Bayern Munich broke the deadlock in the 40th minute when Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored with a close-range header at the Parc des Princes stadium.

French star Kylian Mbappe netted a goal for Paris Saint-Germain in the 78th minute, but it was disallowed for being offside.
