April 23, 2013 - Champions League semi-final, first leg. Bayern Munich 4 (Muller 25' & 82, Gomez 49' Robben 73') Barcelona 0. Sweet revenge for Bayern after their thrashing by the same scoreline five years earlier. This was Barca's worst defeat in Europe since Dynamo Kiev beat them by the same scoreline in 1997, as manager Tito Vilanova's gamble to play a clearly unfit Lionel Messi failed to pay-off. Germany midfielder Thomas Muller scored twice, with Mario Gomez and Arjen Robben also on target. Bayern Munich manager Jupp Heynckes said: "It was not a really big surprise to me ... We have played to a high level all season." EPA

Muller's goal completed the rout and Bayern would go on to beat Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund in the final - the last time they won the competition. After the semi-final humiliation, Pique said: "When another side is so superior to you, there isn't any option except to congratulate them." Getty

Barcelona 3 (Messi 77' & 70', Neymar 90') Bayern Munich 0: Led by former Barca manager Pep Guardiola, the Germans - without attacking big guns Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben - had frustrated Barca until being taken apart in the final 13 minutes.

After the match, Guardiola said: "Barca is Leo [Lionel Messi] – but Barca are also a very good team and they are in top form in all departments. We had done well until the first goal but then we lost control." AP
