Benfica vs. Bayern: Sané, Éverton and Lewandowski sealed a 4-0 win for the ‘Bavarians’ | VIDEO

Bayern Munich beat Benfica mercilessly as a visitor this Wednesday for the third day of group E of the Champions Leaugue. After a goalless first half, Leroy Sané, Éverton and Robert Lewandowski sentenced the ‘Bavarians’ 4-0 in 14 minutes.

After numerous occasions, Leroy Sané advanced the Bavarians with a great direct free from 25 meters (70), before the Brazilian Everton scored an own goal in 80.

The Polish Robert Lewandowski signed up for the festival with his fifth goal in this Champions League (82), placing himself in second position in the scorers’ table. Sané, the man who opened the can, would close it with a second goal in 85.

Julian Nagelsmann’s men, absent from the bench due to a pseudo-flu infection, made a good first half, full of rhythm but without finding the goal.

As the minutes passed, and despite their obvious dominance, the Munich players crashed time after time against a compact block of a Benfica who arrived at the game without conceding a single goal in the Champions League.

The referee, after consulting the VAR, ruled out two goals to Lewandowski and Thomas Muller, by hand and offside respectively.

Despite this, Bayern maintain their average of close to five goals per game this season.

Bayern’s last European defeat away from home dates back to a 3-0 defeat against PSG on the first date of the 2017/18 Champions League, a record series that is already 20 games.

Bayern Munich, who had beaten Dinamo Kiev 5-0 in their previous match, widened the difference at the head of the group, with five points more than their rival on Wednesday, second.
