With a 2-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain away from home thanks to Luis Diaz’s two goals and red card, Bayern Munich have won 16 of their 16 games this season, underlining their status as early UEFA Champions League favorites.
On the stroke of half-time, the Colombian winger struck twice on Tuesday before being sent off for a violent tackle against Achraf Hakimi.

After the break, PSG dominated possession but failed to make it count, falling to their first defeat in the competition since last season’s quarterfinal second leg defeat Aston Villa.
With the early replacement of Hakimi and Ousmane Dembele, Bayern remained top of the 36-team league with a maximum of 12 points, PSG in third, three points adrift, and with more injury concerns.
The most important thing I hope isn’t too bad for Hakimi. Bayern coach Vincent Kompany stated at a press conference that we had this experience with [Jamal] Musiala] at the Club World Cup in the United States.
“I always tell players to believe what there is when there is some hype.” We’ve won 16, but it’s going to be back to zero starting tomorrow. Today, no one has captured the Champions League.
The PSG counterpart, Luis Enrique, echoed that sentiment, saying, “Today’s standings are meaningless. February, March, April, and May are all important.
“It’s always difficult to lose at home,” he said. We must be more assertive and creative. A well-organized team, especially physically, was on hand. Marquinhos, the PSG captain, said, “We couldn’t get our game going.”
“This match has some positives to take away,” he said. The team continues to be ambitious, but we must improve. They were more superior to us. We were in control in the second half, but it came after the red card.
Dembele made his Champions League debut, but Lee Kang-in took the place of him after 25 minutes.
PSG, who had defeated Bayern 2-0 in the Club World Cup quarterfinals in July, came out strong with their signature high pressing, but Lucas Chevalier’s effort was denied by Diaz in the fourth minute.
Dembele initially thought he had leveled midway through the half, but PSG struggled and looked unusually fragile at the back, where his goal was later ruled out for offside.
Bradley Barcola, who had a precise long ball from Fabian Ruiz, was denied by Manuel Neuer moments later in a spectacular save.
After Serge Gnabry hit the post, Diaz slammed on a sleepy Marquinhos to steal the ball and fire a second home in the 32nd minute.
Diaz abruptly missed half-time when he was shown a straight red card for a brutal lunge at Hakimi, who had a rumored ankle injury.
PSG had a number of long-range possession opportunities in the second half, but they didn’t have a cutting edge until the 74th minute when substitute Neves cut the deficit with a spectacular scissor kick from Lee’s cross.
Neves almost equalized a few minutes later with a header as PSG’s pressure increased. Bayern stayed put despite the hosts’ late ruckus.

Hegseth claimed in a post on social media late on Tuesday that the most recent vessel attacked was involved in “illicit narcotics smuggling,” despite legal experts’ claims that these attacks constitute extrajudicial killings, even if the victims are suspected of drug trafficking.

Hegseth claimed that US forces attacked the vessel in “international waters in the Eastern Pacific” at the president’s request and that it was “transiting along a known narco-trafficking route” and “carrying narcotics.”
Hegseth did not provide any details about drug trafficking, but a quick aerial video of the attack showed what appeared to be a ship floating in water before being hit by a missile and bursting into flames and smoke.
The video was edited by the US military to prevent viewers from seeing the vessel’s occupants.
“We will locate and destroy EVERY vessel with the intention of bringing drugs into the country to obliterate our citizens.” Our top priority is always going to be protecting the homeland, Hegseth stated in a post on X in addition to the video.
At least 17 vessels have been targeted by US military strikes since early September, including 16 boats and a semi-submersible, but the Trump administration hasn’t made any public proof that its targets were smuggling narcotics or posed a threat to the country.
Governments and victims’ families in Latin America have condemned the strikes and accused Washington of killing primarily fishermen, while both the Republican and Democratic Party lawmakers have demanded more information about the legal justification for US actions in international waters.
Volker Turk, the head of the UN’s human rights office, demanded last week that the US stop its attacks and “prevent the extrajudicial killing of people aboard these boats.”
The USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier is a part of a US military effort to combat alleged drug cartels that are threatening the US as it learns about the latest killings.
Venezuela’s president Nicolas Maduro has accused the US of using its most recent “war on drugs” as a pretext to remove him from power. He is accused of being involved in drug trafficking.
Trump was questioned about how many years Maduro’s presidency had been up for him during an interview that aired on the US CBS channel on Sunday.
“Yes, I would say. Yes, I believe so, the president said.
However, he did not respond to a query regarding his intention to launch strikes inside Venezuela.

Following drone sightings that forced two major airports to temporarily suspend operations as a security precaution, Belgium’s air traffic was severely impacted.
According to Belgium’s public broadcaster RTBF, a drone was first discovered close to Brussels airport on Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. (12:00 GMT), followed by another incident at the nearby Liege airport, one of Europe’s largest cargo airports.

Both airports halted operations for an hour before reopening at 9 p.m. (20 GMT), which RTBF reported was to close at 10 p.m. (21:00 GMT) after a second sighting. At 11 p.m. (22:00 GMT), both airports resumed normal operations.
In a notice posted on the airport’s website, Brussels Airport stated that the shutdowns may still have an impact on Wednesday’s air traffic.
Flight operations at Brussels Airport were suspended for safety reasons, according to the notice. This disruption has caused delays and some flight cancellations, and it may still have an impact on Wednesday morning flight operations.
On Tuesday, Flight Aware, a website for tracking flights from the US, tallied 59 cancelled and 43 delayed flights to Brussels airport. According to RTBF, some flights were also diverted to nearby airports.
Although the government has not provided specific details about the drone sightings, RTBF reported that an investigation was being conducted. Minister of Interior Bernard Quintin said that.
“We cannot tolerate the disruption of our airports by unlicensed drone flights. He argued that a coordinated, national response is required for this.
According to Belgian Defense Minister Theo Francken, the drone sightings come after a similar incident on Saturday when three unlicensed drones were spotted close to a Belgian military base.
Francken claimed on X that the incident was “a clear command targeting]the Kleine Brogel” airbase in northwest Belgium.
He claimed a drone jammer couldn’t stop the drones because they were high-altitude aircraft. He claimed that they avoided police car and helicopter pursuit.
A flurry of enigmatic drone sightings have been reported near military installations and civilian airports in Denmark, Germany, and Norway since September.

“We have at least 11 injuries being treated by neighborhood hospitals, some of which are very serious.” I believe that number will increase, Beshear said once more.
Additionally, Beshear stated that the FAA will assist in the launch of an investigation into the crash.
A large fire was blasted onto the crash site by firefighters, who were filmed on aerial footage, showing a long trail of debris and smoke billowing from the scene.
Beshear claimed that the plane veered off into two nearby auto parts companies and a petroleum recycling company.

A “shelter-in-place” notice was issued for all locations within an 8km (5 miles) of the airport, according to the Louisville Metro Police Department’s post on social media.
Every emergency agency is responding to the scene, according to the statement. Mayor of Louisville Craig Greenberg stated in a social media post that there are numerous injuries and that the fire is still burning.
According to Greenberg, “the area has many road closures; please avoid the scene.” The collision was described as “an incredible tragedy” for the local community.
With thousands of employees and about 300 cargo flights scheduled each day, UPS Worldport is a global hub for the company’s air cargo operations, which is reportedly the largest package handling facility in the world.
According to the FAA, the plane was a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 that was taking off from Louisville for Honolulu, Hawaii.
The plane had previously flown from Louisville to Baltimore on Tuesday before returning to Louisville, according to flight tracking website FlightRadar24.
The airfield was declared closed following the incident by the Louisville airport.
