Whatever happened to the tactic of keeping it tight for the first half?
Roma would have known they were in for a tough encounter at home against Bayern Munich this evening, but they never could have known how disastrously it would pan out, with the hosts conceding five goals in the first half alone.
Arjen Robben (2), Robert Lewandowski, Mario Gotze and Thomas Muller all got on the scoresheet, with Bayern making what seemed like a really tricky away tie look like a walk in the park.
Here are all the first half goals in just six seconds.

If that wasn’t galling enough for Roma, when they tried to score down the other end, Manuel Neuer pulled off this ridiculous save to keep Gervinho out…

Roma fans will be glad to know that Gervinho has since pulled one back for the home side, only four more to go then.
