A world champion teases PSG after their defeat to Bayern
Freshly retired, Mats Hummels has kept his talent for elegant provocation. Present at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday night to witness Bayern Munich’s 2-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain, the former German defender—now an Amazon Prime Video pundit—seized the moment to tease the Parisians with mischief.
Just hours after the match, Hummels posted on X (formerly Twitter) a photo of his famous goal scored in the same spot during the second leg of the 2024 Champions League semi-final while playing for Borussia Dortmund. His sharp yet subtle message read:
“I miss corners here.”
This brief line revived the painful memory for PSG fans of that cruel elimination when Hummels secured Dortmund’s place in the final.
At 36, Hummels appears to be fully enjoying his pundit role, maintaining his legendary humor and passion for football. Watching from the stands, he observed Paris’s recent heartbreak, clearly amused by history repeating itself.
