‘Bayern Munich in good position in Champions League tie’ – Arjen Robben
Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben has said that his side are still well placed at the halfway stage of their Champions League last 16 tie with Juventus despite blowing a two-goal lead in the first leg this evening.
Pep Guardiola‘s side dominated proceedings for the first hour in Turin, with Robben scoring the second of their goals to seemingly put one foot in the quarter-finals.
However, the hosts fought back with two goals in the final half an hour to rescue a draw and give themselves hope in the second leg, although Bayern remain favourites courtesy of their two away goals.
“It’s a good position going back to the Allianz. We have to approach [the second leg] with passion and heart,” Robben told Bayern’s official website.
Bayern, who will welcome Juve to Munich for the second leg on March 16, have won all 15 of their home matches this season.
