Musa and Ryan are back with a Champions League podcast, but before they get into the action, they talk about competition anthems, another book for Musa, and … Snoopy (00:51). There’s a very quick summary of a few domestic games in Italy and Spain (7:11) before getting into a thriller in snowy Allianz Arena, where PSG beat Bayern 3-2 thanks to two Kylian Mbappé goals (08:43), and where Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting earned some praise.
