Bayern Munich thrash Lazio 4-1 and have a foot in the quarterfinals

Lewandowski scores and becomes the third top scorer in the Champions League

Bayern Munich remains unbeatable.  The prey of the time was Lazio, who even playing at the Olympic stadium in Rome, was unable to hold on to the power of the German team and was defeated by 4 to 1. Lewandowski, Musiala and Sané, practically sacrificed victory in the first half.  At the beginning of the final stage there was still the goal against Acerbi, expanding the score for Bayern.  Joaquín Correa declined for the Italian team shortly after.  With the victory, the team reached the 18th consecutive game without being defeated in Europe.  There are already 17 wins and a draw, which accounts for 96.2% of use, adding the 11 consecutive wins in the title won.

With the goal scored against Lazio, striker Robert Lewandowski became the third top scorer in the history of the Champions League.  He overtook Spaniard Raúl, ex-Real Madrid, and reached 72 goals in the tournament, trailing only Cristiano Ronaldo (134) and Lionel Messi (119).

On the other hand, 17-year-old striker Jamal Musiala is the youngest player to score for a German club in league history.  He is also the first athlete with English nationality (born in Germany, but naturalized) underage to score a goal in the international tournament.

The next match will be on March 17 in Munich.  The German club can lose by up to 3 to 0 which guarantees classification.  Lazio will be able to win by four goals difference or by three, as long as they score at least five goals.  If you manage to repeat the 4 to 1 of the first match the confrontation will go to penalties.
