Muller headed the final score in the 76th minute. Ribery, Robben and Muller were always dangerous for Bayern.

Both games have shown we’re capable of football at a very high level. We’re playing extremely high-speed football, we’re very well organised, we’re tactically smart, we close down the space, and our transitions are functioning perfectly this season. We’re a real team, from the front to the back.”
