Bayern Munich vs Lazio - LIVE!

Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern Munich turned around their Champions League last-16 tie with a 3-0 win over Lazio at the Allianz Arena. After a 1-0 defeat in the first leg in Italy, Bayern had work to do if they were to avoid their season well and truly imploding, with this competition likely their only hope of finishing the campaign with some silverware.

Jamal Musiala had a decent strike saved early on and Kane’s shot from the edge of the area deflected just wide, but it was at the other end that the biggest chance came. A cross into the box could only be flicked on in his own box by Matthijs de Ligt, sending the ball perfectly into the path of Ciro Immobile who could not hit the target with his header when completely free at the back post. Minutes later, Bayern took the lead on the night. Thomas Muller nodded the ball back, Raphael Guerreiro’s scuffed shot fell for Kane and his header was just about powerful enough to squirm through Ivan Provedel.

And, with the final touch of the half, Bayern edged in front on aggregate, as De Ligt volleyed the ball back into the six-yard box from a corner and Muller was on hand to head home from close-range. That gave Thomas Tuchel’s side control of the tie and midway through the second-half, breathing room was secured. Leroy Sane cut inside onto his left foot, fired an effort at goal and that was parried out to Kane, who swiftly rearranged his feet and turned the ball into an empty net for his 33rd club goal of the season.

21:17 , Matt Verri

58 mins: It’s all a bit scrappy. Lazio not yet really going for it - they will have to do so soon if it stays like this.

Bayern have only looked vulnerable on the break, so no surprise that they are being a bit more conservative since half-time.

20:24 , Matt Verri

15 mins: Corner taken short, out to Musiala and his shot from the edge of the area is parried away.

Bayern stay on the attack, until Sane tries his luck from miles out. And it’s miles over the bar. No need for Bayern to force things this early.

20:14 , Matt Verri

13 mins: Kane looks for a clever reverse pass, the ball spins away for another corner.

KICK-OFF!

20:01 , Matt Verri

We’re up and running in the second leg!

Here we go!

19:57 , Matt Verri

Teams are out onto the pitch in Munich.

It’s a brilliant atmosphere, Bayern fans are right up for it ahead of kick-off. Up to the players to keep the mood this positive...

Lazio with struggles of their own

19:51 , Matt Verri

It’s 24 years since Lazio last made it to the last-eight of the Champions League.

All the talk has been about Bayern’s woes, but the Italian side are not in great form themselves, sitting ninth in Serie A.

Every chance this turns into a very tense, nervy night. Neither side playing with much confidence.

Serious form!

19:45 , Matt Verri

The England captain has shone on an individual level at Bayern this season.

It looks unlikely to bring a Bundesliga title though, and Bayern face an uphill task to make a deep run in the Champions League.

Kane is still waiting to win the first trophy of his career.

Tuchel: We can rely on Kane 100%

19:39 , Matt Verri

Thomas Tuchel believes Harry Kane will deliver for Bayern tonight, as they look to overturn a first-leg deficit.

“He has a big impact on every team, and on every player,” Tuchel said on Monday at his pre-match press conference

“He's not very outspoken, and not a loud speaker, but the way he does things is very focused and always has an impact on the team.

“It's a pleasure to have him on the team, and a gift to be his coach. He'll perform tomorrow. We can rely on him 100%."

Warm-up time!

19:31 , Matt Verri

Lazio players are out onto the pitch at the Allianz Arena.

Kick-off coming up in just under 30 minutes.

Dier makes move permanent

19:22 , Matt Verri

Tottenham defender Eric Dier will join Bayern Munich on a permanent transfer.

The 30-year-old moved to the German giants on loan in January, having made just one start under manager Ange Postecoglou this season and with his contract set to expire in the summer.

Bayern paid a £3.4million fee to take Dier for the remainder of the campaign and the player has since triggered a pre-agreed clause in the deal having made seven appearances.

Dier will now remain in Munich until at least June 30, 2025.

He told the club’s official website: "I'm happy in Munich. Now my future is sorted and I can focus on playing well for the club and trying to help the club to win games, win competitions, even though it's been a difficult period for us."

Bayern under huge pressure

19:16 , Matt Verri

It’s five years since Bayern last failed to make it to the Champions League quarter-finals. They were beaten by Liverpool in the last-16 that season.

Their previous last-16 exit before that came in 2011.

It would be a major, major disappointment for Bayern if they were knocked out tonight. And that’s putting it mildly.

Sarri: Lazio must be courageous

19:04 , Matt Verri

Mauricio Sarri’s side take a narrow lead into tonight’s second leg, but the Lazio boss has warned his side they still have a lot of work to do if they are to reach the quarter-finals.

“I do not feel particularly emotional, as here we need to be courageous and determined,” Sarri said in his press conference.

“We are aware of how difficult it is going to be, which ought to give us that spirit of sacrifice. Nothing is impossible in football, this must give us courage. We must be fired up and angry.

“Bayern Munich are a top quality team and they can score goals easily. Thinking we could just sit there and defend for 100 minutes is a bad idea, we’ve got to have the courage to push forward.”

In the building!

18:52 , Matt Verri

Lazio have arrived at the Allianz Arena.

Not long now until we get all the team news.

Kane on the hunt for trophies... still

18:45 , Matt Verri

Harry Kane has 27 goals in 24 Bundesliga matches this season.

To go with that, the Bayern striker has scored four Champions League goals in seven matches too.

It has been a flying start to life in Germany, and yet Kane faces the very real possibility that he may well end the season without a trophy.

That was not the plan when he left Tottenham...

Tuchel wants urgency

18:37 , Matt Verri

Bayern Munich know they must win tonight if they are to reach the quarter-finals, and Thomas Tuchel has urged his side to immediately put Lazio under pressure.

"The time is on Lazio's side," Tuchel said.

"We've got no time to lose. We can't be patient if it's just about keeping ball possession. We have just 90 minutes.

"We can't take time to wait for our first attack or pass to the other side instead of taking an opportunity.

"We need to play with a cool head but we need to play to score goals."

Season on the line?

18:24 , Matt Verri

It feels like Champions League or bust for Bayern Munich this season.

After drawing with Freiburg last time out, they now sit ten points off the pace set by Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga title race. Only ten matches to go.

Bayern have won the title in each of the last 11 seasons, but that run looks almost certain to come to an end.

It’s all on Europe...

Tel: Henry, Ronaldo and Mbappe made me dream

18:17 , Matt Verri

Time to make you all feel old.

Bayern winger Mathys Tel has been speaking in the build-up to this match, with the 18-year-old talking about how he grew up idolising, among others, Kylian Mbappe.

“I used to watch the UEFA Champions League on TV when I was younger,” he said.

“There was Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappé. They all had different qualities, they were fast, they scored goals, they made great passes.”

“They taught me so much and made me dream as a child.”

Mathys Tel featured in episode one of FedEx’s ‘Outside the Box’ content series. To watch the full episode, click here.

Work for Bayern to do...

18:09 , Matt Verri

Fair to say it didn’t go to plan for Bayern in the first leg.

They were beaten 1-0 in Italy, with Immobile’s penalty the difference.

It means Bayern must win tonight, or they are out of the Champions League.

Stage is set!

18:01 , Matt Verri

All eyes on the Allianz Arena tonight...

Standard Sport prediction

17:55 , Matt Verri

Bayern have had their problems of late but have more than enough about them to overturn the one-goal deficit and reach the quarter-finals.

Harry Kane is looking for his first ever Champions League goal in a home knockout game, and you wouldn’t bet against him breaking his duck.

Bayern to win, 3-1 agg.

Lazio team news

17:50 , Matt Verri

Lazio will have captain Ciro Immobile leading the line, and he should be supported by Mattia Zaccagni, who is now available again.

Luca Pelligrini, Adam Marusic and Matteo Guendouzi are all suspended domestically, but that does not apply tonight.

Bayern team news

17:42 , Matt Verri

Matthijs de Ligt should come in for the suspended Dayot Upamecano, while Jamal Musiala and Mathys Tel could start to support Harry Kane after a goal each in the draw at Freiburg.

Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sane both face late fitness checks.
