Bayern’s triumphant passage through the Champions League continues

Ten wins in ten games. More than four goals in favor on average per game and seven victories by three or more goals of difference. A similar exhibition is not remembered on the way to a Champions final to the star this season of the Bayern Munich, who already challenges Paris Saint-Germain de Neymar and Mbappé for the ‘orejona’ after a new win against Olympique Lyon.

And that the first to round the goal was the surprising Lyon, well Memphis Depay He served as a sprinter and stood in the hand in hand with Neuer, which held out long enough to cause the Dutch attacker to kick her out. As powerful at the offensive level as hesitant in the axis of the rear, the Bavarian team soon showed that in the pair between Boateng and Alaba is your particular Achilles heel.

As expected, Bayern tripled in passes to their rival, who nevertheless had managed to create increased sense of danger and he lived with relative ease before the ogre, beyond a Goretzka semi-fallow shot that Lopes sent to a corner kick in trouble. No trace of the triumphant ride of the German champion that some expected but that the condition of Lyon’s giant killers, the executioner of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus and Guardiola’s Manchester City in this edition, invited them to discard from the start.

Bayern’s advanced defense, which Barça used so little, suffered constantly from the bullets of Lyon above. So it was in an action of Camp Store, who with a considerable dose of fortune made a left-handed shot straight to the post right of the German goal. The team led by Rudi García won the points by far, but football is a forceful sport and in that the Bavarian giant is a specialist. Too many concessions from Lyon’s rear to Gnabry, that from the front of the French area a kick with the left leg unappealable. German advantage and tremendous jug of cold water for Lyon, aware that against such a rival it is not worth even being superior in the game.

The so much in favor calmed the spirits in the group of Hans-Dieter Flick, that from then on it already began to show its condition of great favorite. Gnabry again wreaked havoc down the middle, putting him on the left side for Perisic, who in turn served Lewandowski the goal on a plate. That the Pole fails with everything in favor before the rival door is something truly newsworthy, something like the passage of Halley’s Comet, but just in case it was there again Gnabry to rescue the remains and turn them into 0-2. Demolisher Bayern, who came to rest with the feeling of unbeatable for a rival with two of their centrals already booked.

Lion pride

With the second half already at stake, Perisic had the final sentence in his hand, but after a magnificent pass from the immeasurable Davies, he finished softly, at the hands of Lopes. The pride of Lyon cannot be denied, which disturbed Bayern through a too focused header from Marcelo after a corner kick and especially in a remate de Ekambi before whom the reborn New se hizo enormous.

The threat of a French comeback was fading with the passing of the minutes. In fact, the third German goal could well have come from a goal by Coutinho well canceled by Mateu Lahoz for offside. The convenience of the lead even allowed Flick to try a few minutos a Pavard, which in the event of arriving in physical condition to start Sunday’s final, would allow Kimmich to regain his natural position in the center of the field, in which he marveled in the final stretch of the Bundesliga. The final icing on the Bavarian cake was put by almost always, Lewandowski, which removed the bitter taste of his mistake in the first half with his fifteenth day in this edition of the Champions. The Polish striker is two behind the record of 17 that Cristiano Ronaldo reached in the 2013-14 campaign. From record to record.
