- 18' 0-0: Bayern have been brilliant so far with Leroy Sane and Kingsley Coman causing all sorts of problems on the wings. However, the hosts just have to be clinical if they really want a comeback here. #UCL
- 17' 0-0: Leroy Sane misses a huge chance to open the scoring and pull one goal back for Bayern Munich. Still goalless at the Allianz Arena. #UCL

- 5' 0-0: In simple terms, Thomas Tuchel's side needs a miracle here to qualify for the semi-finals of the Champions League. It's not an impossible task as the drama of the tournament has often times reminded us in the past. But to do it against this high-flying City side will no doubt send a statement to every other contender who makes it to the semis. #UCL
