Bayern Munich’s dream of lifting the UCL trophy on home soil is on the ropes at San Siro, with Inter 2-1 up and in the driving seat for their UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg.
Like those great Italian teams of old, Simone Inzaghi has built this Nerazzurri outfit on rock-solid foundations. They’ve condeded a measly three goals in their 11 Champions League games, and while that ordinarily wouldn’t faze Bayern a great deal, they’re a diminished quantity without the injured Jamal Musiala.
Harry Kane, Michael Olise and a rejuvenated Thomas Muller are an intimidating trio, but they have nobody remotely in the mould of Musiala to prise open gaps by coaxing defenders out of position. Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez, by comparison, are a well-oiled double-act.
They lost the final on penalties, in 2012, the last time the Champions League final was staged in Munich, a wound that neither the 2013 nor 2020 triumphs were able to heal.
Greedy? Absolutely. But Bayern’s domestic dominance means the Champions League is far and away their No.1 priority. For Vincent Kompany, this is the hazard of the job.

“It’s great to be here. It will be a difficult game, against a very strong team in a beautiful stadium. But we know how much effort we’ve put in to get here and we’ll give it our all. Bayern are an experienced Champions League team. They always reach the latter stages. For me they’re the favourites for the title alongside Real Madrid.”
