It is to be an all-German Champions League final as Bayern compound Barca's misery with comprehensive win at Camp Nou.
Bayern Munich cruised into their third Champions League final in four years as a 3-0 win over Barcelona at the Camp Nou on Wednesday gave them an incredible 7-0 aggregate semi-final victory.The absence of Lionel Messi from the Barca starting line-up almost eradicated any hope of an unlikely comeback before the game had even begun, but Bayern showed their 4-0 first-leg win last week had been no fluke with a display of controlled dominance.
"Perhaps it was the bitterest night I have had at Barcelona" Barca defender Gerard Pique |
Afterwards Pique admitted it was one of the most difficult nights he has had in his five years at the club.
"Perhaps it was the bitterest night I have had at Barcelona," he told Spanish Canal Plus television.
"We tried but they scored a goal very early in the second half and this left us broken. The last 25 minutes were very difficult."
For Robben meanwhile it was unconfined joy as he aims to make amends at Wembley for missing a penalty that could have won Bayern the trophy on home soil against Chelsea last season.
"That's history - 4-0 at home and then 3-0 here, we should be proud of that and enjoy it. Now we have to win this thing," he told Sky Germany.
"We have so much quality in the team that we can win games like these, in this manner."
