Lazio routed by Bayern Munich to plot quarter-final course

It has been seen very recently that Bayern Munich had brushed all his poor domestic form. They threw the marker of the champion’s league with the win of 4-1 on Tuesday at Lazio. It was to take the huge-step with the last-16 first leg ahead of the quarter-finals. Bayern was given an early lead by Robert Lewandowski before Jamal Musiala, who is a 17 year old, achieved to score his first goal in the Champions League. This was only his fourth time appearing in Europe. Musiala was born in Stuttgart who is turning 18 years old this Friday, is now one of the youngest Englishman. He is rewarded for the goal he scored being the youngest in the history of the Champions League. 

According to the Bayern coach Hansi Flick, the team is a huge step closer to reach the quarter-finals. Jaoquin Correa also managed to score a goal much early in the second half so that the score line became something respectable for Lazio. 

Leon Goretzka, who is the Bayern midfielder also claimed that they were much aggressive from the beginning and then became full throttle. This was his first appearance after he was tested positive for the corona virus. 

According to him he is very happy to have played such good games after the difficult weeks have passed. He also added that this was very much needed after they had been caught to nap in the recent games. But things worked well according to him and that is a very good step taken first. 

To go to the last eight Simone Inzaghi’s Lazio is in need of the near miracle on 17th March in Munich for the return game. 

According to Inzaghi, the world champions are the Bayern. He also added that they are not in need of the mistakes so that it becomes easier for them during the match. 

Musiala was pulled by Flick in the place of Thomas Mueller. He was being sidelined because of the positive result of covid-19. Due to the virus Benjamin Pavard was also out of the league at the same time Serge Gnabry and Corentin Rolisso who were the midfielders were missing due to the thigh injuries. 

Last week Bayern dropped five points in the Bundesliga and brought to Rome the depleted squad. Despite this Bayern just needed less than 9 minutes before Lewandowski jumped on the mistake in the defense of Lazio. 

It was the 72nd Champions League goal of Lewandowski. Musiala, who is the under-21 midfielder of England has opted to play for the senior side of Germany. He showed maturity beyond his age to drill calmly past Reina to make the points 2-0 on the twenty four minutes. There was extension in the lead before the half time when the shot was parried by Kingsley Coman at the same time Sane tapped along the rebound. 

According to sane, who is the Bayern winger, they always wanted to show that they were switched from the very first minute. They took the possible chances and played much well. He also added that they used the ball and also put much pressure on them from the back.
