Team Line-Ups: Kane Sparks Bayern’s Attack As Ruiz Rejoins PSG Squad

Bayern Munich named Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Luis Díaz in the attack front while Fabian Ruiz returned to the starting line-up for Paris Saint-Germain in Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg.

Bayern’s first-choice attacking trio all scored in the first leg and will be joined by Jamal Musiala, who has returned to form after missing the first half of the season with a broken ankle.

The hosts made just one change to the team beaten 5-4 in Paris last week, bringing in Konrad Laimer at left-back in place of Alphonso Davies.

Ruiz makes his first European start for the defending champions since January. The Spaniard was named in midfield to replace Warren Zaire-Emery, who is filling in at right-back for the injured Achraf Hakimi.

Ruiz, who captained PSG in Saturday’s 2-2 draw against Lorient, is yet to play a full match since returning from a knee injury.

Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment." - Mahatma Gandh
