L’Equipe player ratings PSG 5-4 Bayern 2026

L’Equipe are notoriously hard to please for player ratings, and it’s perhaps not surprising that no one got a 10 from them here. Luis Diaz and Kvicha came close with a 9/10.

Bayern and PSG’s attackers fared well, but an exception in this game was Jamal Musiala- L’Equipe gave him a 4/10. With nine goals scored, the defenders usually come in for a bit of stick, and some 3/10 ratings at the back contribute to the low average team ratings for both sides in L’Equipe’s eyes, despite the sterling performance of the attackers.
