FC Bayern have reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. After losing 1-0 in the first leg against Lazio Roma, Thomas Tuchel’s side won the second leg of the last 16 of the Champions League with a commanding 3-0 victory to secure their place in the last eight. Here are the press reviews of the game.
While they only have a theoretical chance of winning the Bundesliga title and have already been eliminated from the DFB Cup, the Champions League remains Bayern’s last (realistic) hope of winning a title this season. Harry Kane & Co. were accordingly motivated in yesterday’s 3:0 home win against Lazio Roma.
