Saturday the 8th of August saw the last two second leg fixtures of the Uefa Champions league go down. And although, the outcome of Chelsea's fixture against Bayern was quite evident even before the match kicked off, a lot of fans still had a little hope that their club could be the Liverpool of 2020. Unfortunately for the Blues, it wasn't to be so as they rather received a 4-1 thrashing from Bayern Munchen at the Allianz Arena.
The Bavarians were coming from a 0-3 win in the reverse fixture back in February and as usual, Robert Lewandowski was at the center of it all when Bayern raced into an early lead in this meeting. He opened the scoring in the 10th minute and went on to assist both Ivan Perisic and Corentin Tolisso on the 24th and 76th minute respectively before closing off the encounter with his second on the 86th minute thanks to Alvaro Odriozola's assist. Chelsea had earlier managed to get a goal through Tammy Abraham in the 44th minute but just weren't capable of stopping Bayern.
This win means that Bayern would get to take on Fc Barcelona in the Quarter finals stage after Quique Setien's men also overcame Napoli in their second fixture. Great performance from Robert Lewandowski once again and brilliant coordination and execution from the whole Bayern team.
Who do you think would be victorious when Bayern takes on Barca in the quarter finals stage ?? Do let me know in your comments below
