Barcelona 0 Bayern Munich 3: Barca crushed as Bayern seal all-German final at Wembley

Leading 4-0 from the first leg, Bayern were similarly clinical at the Nou Camp last night with second-half goals from Arjen Robben, Gerard Pique – who put through his own net – and Thomas Muller sealing a one-sided, overall 7-0 win over a sorry Barca side for whom Lionel Messi was an unused substitute.

The victory sees Bayern through to their third final in four years and they will hope to improve on their runner-up finishes against Inter Milan in 2010 and Chelsea last year when they face Real Madrid’s conquerors from Tuesday night Dortmund – in the competition’s first all-German final – on May 25.

Barca were up against it with only three teams ever having overturned a four-goal first-leg deficit in Europe, and their chances of joining that list looked even slimmer after Messi was judged not fit enough to start the game.

The breakthrough didn’t come until after the break when Robben picked up a long cross-field pass from David Alaba near the right touchline before racing into the area where he cut inside Adriano onto his favoured left foot and curled an unstoppable shot past Victor Valdes inside the far post.

That away goal left Barca needing to score six times to go through to a fourth final in eight years, and it proved well beyond them.

With the tie gone, Vilanova opted to keep Messi under wraps and his first two changes saw him send on Alexis Sanchez and Thiago for Spain duo Xavi and Andres Iniesta.

Bayern continued to look comfortable doubled their lead 18 minutes from time.

Franck Ribery got in behind Dani Alves down the left and his cross was sliced into his own net by Pique with Mario Mandzukic lurking behind.

Ribery was also involved four minutes later as Bayern scored a third, dinking a cross to the far post where Muller climbed highest to head home.
