Bayern Munich 4-1 Chelsea (Agg 7-1): Frank Lampard's men humbled at Allianz Arena


Bayern Munich humiliated Chelsea in the return leg of the last 16 of the Champions League following a 4-1 victory (7-1) on aggregate to advance to the last 8 of the tournament.

The scoreline said it all and it was humbling for Chelsea and warning to the rest of Europe from Bayern Munich. 

Penalty 

It was the worst start for Chelsea, as Lewandowski was played through on goal, looked to round Caballero and was caught as went down. The flag was up for offside, but VAR had a look and Emerson was playing him on. It was a yellow card for Caballero and a penalty to Munich. 

Lewandoski stepped up t take it, he took his time with the run, went high to the right, and despite Caballero guessing correctly, it was inch-perfect. 

Perisic goal 

Ivan Perisic made it 2-0 for the hosts. Lewandowski had the ball on the edge, he squared right for Perisic in acres and he slotted it past Caballero with too much ease. 

Disallowed goal 

Out of nowhere, Chelsea pulled one back and it was a brilliant strike. Abraham held it up, 30 yards from goal, and laid it off to Hudson-Odoi. He took a touch, shrugging off Thiago, and picked his spot from 20 yards, curling into the right corner of the net beyond Neuer. But VAR was called into action to check for a possible offside. The goal could not stand as Hudson was in an offside position. 

Tolisso goal 

Tolisso can't believe his luck here. He's got so much space to score Bayern's third. It was Lewandowski's delivery from the left, and Tolisso just drifted in easily between Emerson and Zouma, who weren't on their toes. He controlled a finish goalwards from six yards; Caballero got a touch, but it ended up in the net. 

Lewandowski brace 

With only seven minutes remaining to stoppage time, Lewandowski bulleted home a header at the far post to further extend Bayern's advantage.

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
