Too Easy for Bayern Munchen to Beat Fiorentina

Bayern Munchen easily won Fiorentina for the Champions League on Tuesday by 3-0

After four minutes of the match Bayern was already winning thanks to Miroslav Klose’s goal. Still on the first half Bastian Schweinsteiger made the second goal and on the ninetieth minute Ze Roberto made the certain victory.

Even if Bayern was a lethal weapon in front, on the defence things were a little different, constant mistakes were made on the back but luck was in their way and Felipe could only shoot a weak kick in the first half.

With three games played, Bayern lead the group with seven points, ahead of Olympique Lyon on five. Fiorentina have two points and Steaua Bucharest one.

Bayern made an aggressive start and had already gone close a couple of times when Luca Toni, playing against his old club, put a flick header into the path of Klose to pick his spot.

The Bavarians kept coming and scored a fine second when Juan Manuel Vargas failed to stop a cross-field pass from Ribery reaching Schweinsteiger, who stepped back inside before shooting across the keeper and in.

Bayern’s comfort on the ball contrasted with their nervousness in defence. Fiorentina saw more of the ball in the second half but the closest they came to getting back in the game was a 30-metre shot from Kuzmanovic that skidded wide, before Mutu’s badly directed header let Bayern off the hook again.

Podolski, on for the injured Toni, went close before Ze Roberto strolled through the defence to round things off.

Jurgen Klinsmann believes that Bayern Munich is starting to show signs of their potential. Klinsmann has come in for some criticism recently after Bayern made their worst start to a Bundesliga season for 31 years.

“We are in top condition and are slowly getting the first results of the very intensive training work of the past three months,” he said.”We deserved to win and this victory is very important as it gives us more momentum for the coming weeks. This is how we want to continue. We have developed a bit of continuity.”
