BAYERN MUNCHEN berpesta gol 7-0 atas wakil Ukraina Shakhtar Donetsk pada leg kedua 16 besar Liga Champions di Allianz Arena, Kamis dini hari.
Bayern Munchen sudah membuka keunggulan menit ke-4 babak bertama melalui titik penalti setelah Mario Gotze dijatuhkan Oleksandr Kucher di kotak terlarang. Thomas Mueller yang ditunjuk sebagai algojo berhasil membawa The Bavarians unggul 1-0.
Oleksandr Kucher yang melanggar Gotze juga diberikan kartu merah oleh wasit William Collum, seperti dilansir Yahoo Sports.
Unggul jumlah pemain membuat Bayern kembali unggul di menit ke-34 melalui sepakan Jerome Boateng memanfaatkan umpan Robert Lewandowski. Hingga babak pertama usai skor 2-0 keunggulan Bayern Munchen tidak berubah.
Pada awal babak kedua, laga berhenti sejenak setelah Darijo Srna mengalami cedera betis akibat bertabrakan dengan Mario Gotze.
Namun satu menit kemudian Bayern Munchen menambah gol menjadi 3-0 setelah Alaba melambungkan bola kepada Ribery yang langsung melepaskan tembakan melengkung yang gagal ditangkap Pyatov, penjaga gawang Shakhtar.
Thomas Müller mencetak gol kedua sekaligus keunggulan 4-0 Bayern menanfaatkan umpan Ribery dari sisi kiri.
Bayern Munchen kembali menambah gol menjadi 5-0 setelah umpan Rafinha dari sayap kanan sukses dimaksimalkan Holger Badstuber menjadi gol di menit 63.
Shakhtar yang hanya bermain dengan 10 pemain sejak babak pertama tampak tidak mampu mengatasi kekuatan Bayern Munchen. The Bavarians semakin perkasa setelah mencetak gol 6-0 melalui Robert Lewandowski memanfaatkan umpan Bastian Schweinsteiger di menit 75.
Mario Götze menambah pesta gol 7-0 Bayern di menit 87 memaksimalkan umpan Jerome Boateng.
Kemenangan telak ini membawa Bayern Munchen lolos ke delapan besar Liga Champions Eropa menemani Real Madrid dan FC Porto yang sudah lolos satu hari sebelumnya.
FC BAYERN MUNCHEN eased into a fourth successive UEFA Champions League quarter-final with a dominant display against FC Shakhtar Donetsk.
Bayern were in charge from the moment Olexandr Kucher was adjudged to have fouled Mario Götze in the third minute, conceding a penalty and collecting the fastest red card in UEFA Champions League history in the process. Thomas Müller converted the spot kick and Jérôme Boateng tapped in a second before the interval; Franck Ribéry, Müller, Holger Badstuber, Robert Lewandowski and Götze himself completed an emphatic win after the break.
The first leg in Ukraine had been a tight, goalless affair but this was anything but. A free-flowing Bayern move ended with Götze closing in on goal; Kucher's sliding challenge abruptly halted his progress. The Shakhtar defender was dismissed and Müller sent Andriy Pyatov the wrong way from the penalty spot.
Arjen Robben then passed up two gilt-edged opportunities, first narrowly failing to apply the finishing touch to Lewandowski's unselfish cross before Götze and Müller's clever corner routine worked space for the Dutchman ten metres out, but the shot was wild.
Robben limped off shortly afterwards but, by the midway point of the opening period, Bayern had enjoyed 67% of the possession. A second goal continued to elude them, although it looked certain to arrive when Rafinha's centre found Lewandowski in space. The Pole's header beat Pyatov only to come back off the upright; moments later the goalkeeper was down smartly to block Ribéry's effort.
Pyatov next made another smart stop to deny Lewandowksi from close range; unfortunately for the keeper, the ball fell kindly for Boateng to tap in. Müller then curled centimetres wide, yet Bayern would not have long to wait to extend their advantage.
Four minutes into the second half another slick corner routine paid dividends, Götze and Boateng creating the room for Ribéry to slot in. A fourth goal followed swiftly, Pyatov beating Lewandowski to the ball yet pushing it only as far as Müller, who rolled into the empty net.
Bayern kept pressing for more goals and made it five shortly past the hour as Badstuber nodded in Rafinha's delivery for his first Bayern goal since December 2009. Lewandowski then claimed the goal he had threatened all night from Bastian Schweinsteiger's long pass, galloping clear before prodding past Pyatov.
