Didn't have time to talk about the game earlier but I saw it and boy it was great but not for Bayern mind you. Still, I'm glad for Liverpool as they really deserved it more in both games, they were relentless. As for Bayern, really dissapointed, they never looked like they really believed or even wanted to come back after the first goal. Nearly think this is worse than Real Madrid if only because of the attitude. Hope this serve as a wake up call and Bayern start thinking about what they should be doing next.
Edit: Good analysis by te way Dynast as usual! +1

No one seems to be talking about this tie, but Bayern were completely outclassed. I thought that Liverpool would be much more comfortable with VVD back in the lineup, but in the end they barely needed him. Bayern did not provide any threat whatsoever to Liverpool. The one goal Bayern scored, Robertson fell asleep very badly.
Lewandowski was isolated for much of the game, and Salah, Mane, and Firmino did an excellent job pressing Sule and Hummels. I know this Bayern side isn't what they used to be, but the comfort with which Liverpool's defense played tonight was embarrassing for Bayern.
Liverpool probably didn't even need VVD this entire game. Bayern hardly ever threatened them outside of the first 20 minutes or so, and even if VVD didn't score, someone from Liverpool was bound to because they were rolling Bayern over in the second half.
