CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL, SECOND LEG
BARCELONA 0
BAYERN MUNICH 3
(Robben 49, Pique 72-og, Mueller 76)
*Bayern Munich through to final 7-0 on aggregate.
THIS was a result which produced seismic waves across European football. A tectonic shift is happening right before our eyes, or at least that was what some pundits would have us believe.
EPOCHAL shifts are rarely so easy to pinpoint. Barcelona, the greatest team on the planet since 2008, were mercilessly crushed at the Allianz Arena yesterday morning (Singapore time) by Bayern Munich, the new powers in Europe.
