Timo Werner admits Bayern Munich’s crushing victory over Chelsea in the Champions League ‘hadn’t exactly spoken in favour’ of a move to Stamford Bridge but believes the club have since gone some way to addressing the problems made evident in the one-sided last-16 tie.
A quickfire double from Serge Gnabry and Robert Lewandowski’s 76th-minute strike put Bayern in total control of the clash and Chelsea’s hopes appeared to have been extinguished before the second leg had even kicked off.
The break in football caused by the coronavirus pandemic meant Werner joined the Blues before their trip to the Allianz Arena but the German could play no part in Munich as Bayern extended their advantage and secured a place in the quarter-finals. (Metro)
