Bayern Munich took a huge step towards the Champions League semi-finals when goals by Mario Gomez and Arjen Robben gave them a clinical 2-0 win at Olympique Marseille on Wednesday in the first leg of their quarter-final tie.
Gomez gave Bayern the lead just before halftime when Robben’s defence-splitting pass sent him clear and his shot beat Elinton Andrade who should have done better.
The Bundesliga side, who are desperate to reach the final that will be staged in their own stadium, dominated the second half and the outstanding Robben doubled their lead after 69 minutes to put them firmly in the driving seat for next Tuesday’s second leg.
Marseille had a few early chances, notably when Rod Fanni‘s header was parried by Manuel Neuer into the path of Loic Remy only for the France striker to lash his close-range shot wide.
