Tops
David Alaba impeccable in defense and in the middle
Uncompromising defensively, he tried to bring the excess in the offensive phases by raising the ball himself.
Without the ball, he managed to muzzle the Lazio attackers as evidenced by his defensive management on the deep pass in the direction of Muriqi from the start of the match (1st).
Replaced in midfield when Davies (64th) came into play, he will again show that he is a very versatile player.
He will be the source of Choupo-Moting's second goal.
It is he who makes the offering for the former PSG striker.
Another great game for the one who will miss Bayern.
Leroy Sané, the real danger on the Bayern side
Very mobile and active on the Munich attack front, it is from him that most of the dangerous actions of the Germans will come.
His changes of pace and his calls endangered more than once the Roman defense without succeeding in really unbalancing the block.
As evidenced by his one-on-one with Lulic in the 50th minute.
It could (should) have been decisive if Robert Lewandowski, after a recovery of the ball in the opposing camp, if he had shown more altruism.
At the end of the game, the former Manchester City will offer a final movement by slaloming around several opposing defenders before serving Gnabry in depth on the opposite (88th).
But the latter will miss his duel with Reina.
Flops
The playing intentions of the two formations
On one side or the other, this round of 16 second leg of the Champions League was not really exciting.
The difference made in the first leg (1-4) seemed to weigh on all the players in this game.
On the one hand, the Munich people have accelerated intermittently, offering collective movements through Sané, or Davies (after coming into play in the 64th), but without ever succeeding in unbalancing the Roman bloc.
Opposite, the Lazio players accepted a form of inferiority in the face of the power of this Bayern, who had not decided to expose his forces tonight.
In the end, the two teams seemed to go through this match without wanting to lose strength or create the feat.
To the detriment of the spectacle.
The complicated evening of Muriqi
Established in the double header of the attack of the Romans, Vedat Muriqi had a complicated evening during this round of 16 of the Champions League second leg.
The Kosovar will never manage to be dangerous against a flawless and focused David Alaba.
Worse, he will be guilty of the fault in his own area on Leon Goretzka (30th).
He holds back the German midfielder on a corner.
A largely avoidable fault which allows the Germans to take the advantage while the match seemed balanced.
