[Champions League] Lazio - Bayern Munich = 1 - 0
In the first leg of the Champions League's last 16, Lazio secured a delightful 1-0 victory against Bayern Munich. The winning goal came courtesy of Ciro Immobile, who successfully converted a penalty to give the Biancoceleste the advantage.
Last night, the highly anticipated match between Lazio and Bayern Munich unfolded at the Olimpico. Despite playing on unfamiliar turf, Bayern remained the favored team due to their impressive roster and extensive experience in this tournament.
Contrary to expectations, the situation on the field was completely different. Despite dominating possession, Bayern seemed powerless and failed to make any impact against Lazio until they ultimately suffered a 0-1 defeat.
Despite Harry Kane's presence throughout the entire match, Thomas Tuchel's squad failed to register a single shot on goal out of their 17 attempts! In contrast, the home team displayed impressive efficiency, producing four scoring opportunities from 11 shots.
In the 69th minute of the second half, Lazio secured victory with a goal scored by Ciro Immobile through a penalty kick.
Even with a 1-0 victory, Lazio cannot guarantee their safety. Bayern have the potential to retaliate when they play the second leg at home.
Lazio will now shift their attention to Serie A, playing Bologna in Week 24 on Sunday (18/2), while Bayern will go to VfL Bochum's headquarters on the same day.
