Well, I’ve never seen anything like that in my life.
The Champions League quarterfinal match between Bayern Munich and Barcelona turned into an absolute rout on Friday, with Bayern Munich taking the Spanish giants to school with an 8-2 win.
Eight to two! In a Champions League quarterfinal! And the other team playing Lionel Messi!
It was an absolutely ridiculous scoreline, and a game that kept on delivering from minute one. Barcelona kept things tight early, but their defense could not handle the overwhelming speed and technique of Bayern, and it was 4-1 by halftime. A beautiful Luis Suarez goal made fans wonder if a comeback was possibly on at 4-2, but then Bayern just went and blew the doors off the whole thing.
Let’s relive the match by watching all 10 goals from the game:
