PSG knocked out Bayern Munich 5-4 in the Champions League semi-final. But an unexpected moment is making the rounds on social media.

The night at Parc des Princes will go down in history. PSG eliminated Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-final after an utterly epic clash, finishing with the breathtaking scoreline of 5-4. Nine goals, relentless tempo, and a storyline that twisted and turned until the very end.

But beyond the goals, it’s a seemingly ordinary image that has gone viral. A ball boy at Parc des Princes, widely shared by Prime Video, was caught on camera refusing to return the ball to Manuel Neuer.
