MUNICH — Bayern Munich fans have protested against Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi during the teams' Champions League match. The supporters have held up several banners making clear their opposition to the Qatari businessman during the first half of Bayern's 1-0 win. One banner showed Al-Khelaifi's face with a line over it, another accused him of being "plutocratic" with an expletive, and more banners read: "Minister, club owner, TV rights holder, UEFA ExCo member & ECA chairman all in one?" The 51-year-old Al-Khelaifi is unpopular among the Bayern fans for his influence on European soccer.
