Champions, Bayern mortgage qualification: 3-0 at Chelsea in London (photo Ansa)
LONDON (ENGLAND) – Bayern Munich avalanche on the Chelsea field. Goals from Gnabry (brace) and Lewandowski knocked out Lampard and mortgaged the qualification for the Germans. The return, which will take place in Munich, will be little more than a formality. There was no story tonight, Bayern dominated from the first to the last second but only unlocked the game in the second half because in the first half he was held back by Caballero's saves.
In the second half, Gnabry scored a brace on Lewandowski's assists, then the same Polish center forward ended the match on three at zero on Davies' assists. In the final game, Chelsea remained in ten for the expulsion of Marcos Alonso. A rather heavy defeat that could cost the dismissal of Lampard who in any case will not be reconfirmed at the end of the season.
