Bayern comes back against a harmless Lazio

Bayern will be in the pot for the quarterfinals by coming back from their tie with Lazio, who had won the first leg 1-0 at the Olympic Stadium in Rome. Harry Kane, with a double, goals from a true area killer, was the decisive player

Despite the victory, Bayern had a somewhat hesitant start. The Bavarian team did not star in the typical start in which they push the rival until they get into the area. He had control of the ball from the beginning, but Lazio lived quite comfortably for many minutes and Musiala's first chance did not arrive until the quarter-hour mark.

In the 31st minute, Lazio was able to go ahead on the scoreboard with a cross from Zaccagni, De Ligt's header extended and Immobile, completely unmarked, sent the header wide with everything in his favor.

It was a fatal mistake for the Italians because with Bayern you always have to be attentive. In the last six minutes before half-time the Bavarians turned the tie around. In the 38th minute, Rafael Guerreiro missed his shot but Harry Kane was there to anticipate the defender and head in to make it 1-0, a nine-point goal.

Already in the addition the second arrived. This time in a volley from De Ligt and a header from Thomas Müller. Lazio went to the locker room knocked out and not really knowing what had happened.

The second half began with an equally dominant Bayern. Lazio couldn't find a way to do damage and on the hour mark Maurizio Sarri made a triple substitution. One of the three, the replacement of Ciro Immobile with Taty Castellano, the former Girona player.

In the 66th minute Bayern scored again with a shot from Sané, a rebound from the goalkeeper and again Kane, with the rod ready, made it 3-1. The chances followed one another for Bayern against a Lazio already without any capacity to react. The last minutes did not contribute anything. Bayern lived quietly. His coach, Thomas Tuchel, came into the game questioned. He has bought time.
