The Munich residents made short work of the Londoners. Bayern Munich crushed Tuesday February 25 Chelsea at Stamford Bridge with the score of 3-0 in the knockout stages of the Champions League.
The Bavarians took the upper hand in the second half. On a center by Robert Lewandowski, Serge Gnabry opened the scoring in the 51st minute. The striker reoffended three minutes later, still served by his Polish teammate, with a left cross strike in the area. It was finally Robert Lewandowski who worsened the score in the 76th minute on a cross from Alphonso Davies. With this wide success, the German club is well on its way to qualify for the quarter-finals.
