UEFA Champions League: Simone Inzaghi Rues Lazio Errors after Bayern Munich Demolition

News 18  

Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi was left frustrated at his side’s error-plagued Champions League performance after poor defending led to three of Bayern Munich’s goals in a commanding 4-1 victory for the German champions. A slack back pass from Mateo Musacchio was pounced on for Robert Lewandowski’s opener, resulting in Inzaghi substituting the Argentine defender 31 minutes into the match. Defender Patric was at fault for Bayern’s third goal, while Francesco Acerbi diverted a cross into his own net for their fourth early in the second half to hand Bayern a huge advantage ahead of the last-16 second leg in Munich on March 17. “We contributed to their goals, it’s a bad night but we must go forward and it will be an important step in our development.” The result extended the holders’ unbeaten Champions League run to 18 games and came as a relief after a two-match winless run in the league.
