UCL: Bayern 0-0 Sevila (2-1 Agg) LIVE by SamuelTurner(m): 8:53pm On Apr 11, 2018 |
Roma may have produced a miracle of their own on
Tuesday and it's now Sevilla's turn with the Andalusian club
heading to Bavaria to face Bayern Munich, in the hope of
qualifying for the semi-final.
Bayern Munich were 2-1 winners in the first leg at the
Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan yet Vincenzo Montella's
charges could feel really quite hard done by.
Profligacy in front of goal cost them, despite taking a one-
goal lead they really should have added to their tally before
Jesus Navas' own goal.
The two away goals scored by Jupp Heynckes' charges make
the second leg a daunting task for Sevilla, their immediate
goal must be to record a 2-0 victory in order to ensure
progression.
Sevilla won't go out with a whimper though, Los Rojiblancos
have fought so hard over the years to develop into a
Champions League regular and, now they're in the quarter-
final stage, surrender isn't an option.
Not since their victory at Wembley Stadium in 2013 have
Bayern Munich reached the Champions League final, the
lack of success in the competition since then has left those in
charge at the club disappointed to say the least.
In Heynckes, they have a coach in place, at least
temporarily, who knows how to negotiate the latter stages of
the tournament; you don't get the sense complacency will be
an issue.
David Soria was hopeful that his team can produce at yet
another elite European arena, it must be remembered that
the club's 2-1 victory at Old Trafford was also an incredible
shock, a repeat result on Wednesday would ensure extra
time.
"If we beat Manchester, then we can also win in Munich," he
explained in his pre-match press conference.
There is a certain spirit within the Sevilla squad that has
survived a coaching change, their 3-3 draw against Liverpool
despite being 3-0 down was a memorable moment and the
team wants to go out fighting at the very least.
Bayern may be weighed down by expectation, their
experiences in the Champions League of late have been
scarring, especially against Real Madrid last season,
although for Sevilla to progress there may need to be a
second miracle in the space of 24 hours. |
