Bayern Munich made it to the Champions League final by destroying Barcelona 3-0 at the Nou Camp in the second leg of their semi-final last night.

The German giants claimed a 7-0 victory on aggregate. Barcelona started the encounter with star player Lionel Messi on the substitute’s bench.

Barca was given an early scare on 12 minutes when Arjen Robben broke through their defence, only for Gerard Pique to thwart the Dutchman. Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer saved a long-range effort from Pedro on 24 minutes.

Xavi fired over after Cesc Fabregas got on the end of a Daniel Alves cross. The tie was over early in the second half. Robben was involved again, cutting inside Adriano and curling the ball past Victor Valdes superbly at the far post.

David Villa attempted to get Barca back into the tie, but fired wide when well placed. Robben also shot wide, with Mario Mandzukic in support completely unmarked. The home side’s night worsened on 72 minutes.

Gerard Pique put the ball past Victor Valdes from a Franck Ribery cross to make it 2-0 to the visitors. The home side’s misery was complete on 76 minutes, as Thomas Muller headed home a Franck Ribery cross at the far post.

Bayern will face Bundesliga rivals Dortmund in the Champions League final at Wembley on 25^th May. Dortmund will be looking to avenge their Bundesliga title defeat with a victory over the Bavarians.
