Virgil Van Dijk's Composure Proves Decisive On Vegas Night For Liverpool

On German television they closed out the show with Hello Goodbye by the Beatles, which felt about right. Through mid-afternoon the grey stone squares of Munich's old town had echoed with choruses of "Allez, Allez, Allez", Liverpool's own European anthem of the past two years

Germany (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th March, 2019) On German television they closed out the show with Hello Goodbye by the Beatles, which felt about right. Through mid-afternoon the grey stone squares of Munich's old town had echoed with choruses of "Allez, Allez, Allez", Liverpool's own European anthem of the past two years.It is a sound that may just come to haunt this ageing Bayern era, which reached its own decisive goodbye on a chilly, luminous night at the Allianz Arena.

Quietly, and always with a feeling of strength in reserve, Liverpool produced a performance shot through with the steel of the mature Klopp period.

A 3-1 win in this last 16 second leg will live with the best of the club's modern era.

This is a Bayern squad reaching the end of something. But before this game they had lost only once in 26 home Champions League fixtures. On this same ground Bayern had overrun the best club side of the past 20 years, the tail-end of the Xavi era at Barcelona. Real Madrid have been cuffed aside, Juventus digested, Arsenal tossed around the pitch like a team of Lego men.
