00:00Two teams ready to face off in a clash that will captivate fans across the globe.
00:07The tension's building and this is one you won't want to miss.
00:11Welcome along to an evening that was made for football.
00:13The pitch is in great order too.
00:16I'm Guy Mowbray, joined by Sue Smith in the commentary position.
00:19And we should have a cracking contest here.
00:22It's Bayern Munich and they take on Napoli.
00:25Well, it's a pleasure to be here and I'm anticipating a good game today.
00:28The coaching staff have done all they can.
00:31Now it's about taking it onto the pitch.
00:55This is today's Bayern Munich starting line-up.
00:57Manuel Neuer is in goal.
00:59Deo Upamecano plays alongside Jonathan Tarr as the centre-backs.
01:04And the main striker is Harry Kane.
01:06This is how the Napoli team looks.
01:28Scott McTominay plays alongside Stanislav Lobotka in the heart of midfield.
01:32And they go with a single striker leading the line.
01:48Commissing forward burst.
01:49And that's where it ends.
02:06Michael Olisse.
02:07There could be something building for Bayern here.
02:14And they've got it back now.
02:16Elieff Elmas.
02:25And the vodka goes on past the defender.
02:28And they wouldn't let him get away that easily.
02:35That's the keepers.
02:44And they might really have done better with that.
02:47Di Lorento.
02:52Matteo Politano.
02:55Mostly played through.
02:57Good work.
02:58They've got it back.
02:59Kane.
03:07And it's on now.
03:09And there it is.
03:101-0 already.
03:12Well, the speed of this transition is incredible.
03:30They're up the picture and flash.
03:32And then from that sort of range, he's never going to miss that, is he?
03:35It's an easy finish in the end.
03:371-0 then, as we get started again.
03:501-0 then, as we get started again.
03:55Romani.
03:58Giovanni Di Lorenzo.
04:02Stanislav Laborka.
04:03Serge Gnabry.
04:14Supposed it damn well.
04:18This could get interesting.
04:31Harry Kane.
04:32Well, that's how to win the ball.
04:43Yeah, I love that tackle.
04:45It's a cracking bit of defending.
04:47That's a lovely ball.
04:49There might be something building now.
04:50Now, can they equalise?
04:55Oh, well said.
04:56Oh, turned onto the post.
05:01Serge Gnabry.
05:02La Volca.
05:13It's a little patient here, but they need to find an equaliser.
05:18Oh, great work.
05:19What's next?
05:26Kimmich.
05:26And that's been cut out.
05:33Getting closer.
05:36No way through.
05:37Possession lost.
05:42Stanislav Laborka.
05:47Politano.
05:47A chance to get something going here.
05:59Trying his luck.
06:00And it's saved and held.
06:07Olise.
06:07Some good work to win it there.
06:12Some good work to win it there.
06:17Sam Bukima.
06:20Politano.
06:25Stanislav Laborka.
06:26Way and behind for a corner.
06:33Way and behind for a corner.
06:40Played into the box.
06:41Michael Olise.
06:49Michael Olise.
06:55They're in here.
06:58Gnabry.
06:59Another goal.
07:01And it's one that tightens their grip on this game.
07:03Well, here it is again, and it shows his quality to beat his man, find a yard of space, and then it's finished.
07:21It's quality now.
07:26The lead is now two as the game restarts.
07:30Stanislav Laborka.
07:31Di Lorenzo.
07:43Politano.
07:49There's a chance for the breakaway here.
07:55Oh, they were getting interested there, but not anymore.
08:01Matteo Politano.
08:08Stanislav Laborka.
08:11And he's in there.
08:12He'll take things forward and not cheap.
08:26There's the beat.
08:27Another goal.
08:28And surely there's no way they can throw this away now.
08:32Absolutely dominant.
08:33Well, here's the replay, and it's quite a straightforward finish in the end, but he does well to find space and then hit the target.
08:44I'm sure he'll be pleased with that.
08:46Well, it's been all by and so far, and you sense there could be further punishment in store.
08:55Amir Rahmani.
09:01Here's McTominay.
09:05Switched on and ready to intercept there.
09:08Yes, spotted what was happening there, didn't he?
09:11And the referee's whistle brings the first 45 minutes to a close.
09:17Well, Harry Kane is asking plenty of questions of defenders.
09:20When doesn't he?
09:21It's certainly been difficult to contain.
09:23Yeah, he's played well, hasn't he?
09:25Obviously took his goal well, but his overall performance has been impressive too.
09:29Hopefully he can maintain that level in the second half.
09:31Back to it then, the second half begins.
09:51Giovanni Di Lorenzo.
09:53Here's McTominay.
09:55A bit sloppy in position.
10:04That's a good pass.
10:05Real opportunity.
10:07Gets in the way superbly.
10:10Here's a change for Napoli.
10:13The defensive positioning's spot on.
10:21Well, surely that has to be a red.
10:25He knew that was coming.
10:31Sends on.
10:32Yeah, he did.
10:33And you're never going to get away with that, are you?
10:50Jimmy.
10:50Jimmy.
10:55And it's nicely won to see off the threat.
11:02Yeah, they put it back well there.
11:05Politano.
11:08La vodka.
11:17Yeah, surely.
11:19And he went for power, but he got it all wrong.
11:21It's missed by a distance.
11:28Harry Kane.
11:45All given away.
11:47Gifted.
11:59And the run goes on.
12:02And stopped in their tracks with a change in possession.
12:06And there's a chance for the break here.
12:07This has to be.
12:13And another goal.
12:15It's seemed all over before, but there's another to really seal it.
12:18And here's the replay.
12:31And it's so impressive how quickly they go from back to front.
12:35And from that kind of distance, you back him every time.
12:38Cool, composed.
12:40And a simple finish in the end.
12:44McTominay.
12:47And able to come away with the ball.
12:49This could be threatening.
12:58Opportunity now.
13:00And two becomes three.
13:02As he completes his hat-trick.
13:04A superb performance.
13:05Well, look how he gets around his marker with a lovely bit of skill.
13:18And it's good movement to get on the end of it.
13:20Really shows his composure in front of gold, doesn't he?
13:23And off we go again with the gap.
13:38Now a full five to nothing.
13:42Politano.
13:45He's drifting into a useful position here.
13:48And that's a shame for them.
13:53Nothing doing.
13:55Oh, look at this.
13:56Away they go on the counter.
13:58They couldn't quite take advantage in the end.
14:04That wasn't a good tackle.
14:06And we could see a card shown.
14:08Oh.
14:18Ball out for a throw-in.
14:27Not so much given away as cleverly won.
14:33That took a touch on the way out.
14:35Throw-in to come.
14:36One, two, three, four.
14:48Taking advantage there to win the ball.
14:55Leonardo Spinazzola.
14:57On to McTominay.
15:00Good pass.
15:00Good chance.
15:11The counter looks on here.
15:13Options available.
15:14Just needs the composure now.
15:20It gets better and better.
15:23An absolutely rampant display.
15:26There's no stopping them in this kind of mood.
15:28Well, the speed of this transition is incredible.
15:44They're up the pitch in a flash.
15:45And as soon as he's through 1v1 with the goalkeeper,
15:48he just goes for power and smashes it in the net.
15:52It's a quality finish.
15:58And into the last 15 minutes.
16:07It's a terrific carry forward, this.
16:10Getting closer.
16:12Pass was read and the ball has changed hands.
16:17Looking at pace.
16:18This could be dangerous.
16:20What a chance here.
16:21And there's his second of the match.
16:25Leading the way for the team.
16:27Well, the move was all about the light and pace of the break.
16:42They burst out from the back so quickly.
16:45And the timing of the run from Kane is spot on.
16:47He makes great contact with the ball.
16:49And he just smashes it past the keeper.
16:51He's got no chance for that.
16:52All for a fire invention.
16:57Deal number nine.
16:59Harry Kane.
17:02Let's go a long way with this.
17:06This could be.
17:13Gnabry.
17:19All given away.
17:21Matteo Politano.
17:41Could be a chance to break here.
17:43Oh, surely.
17:52What a lightning fast break.
17:54And that looks destined for the back of the net.
17:56Yeah, great pace of movement in attack.
17:58But what a save.
18:01And there's going to be a change now.
18:03This could get interesting.
18:16Perfectly anticipated.
18:17Really well won.
18:23Scott McTominay.
18:24And out it goes for a throw.
18:40Scott McTominay.
18:43And Gieser.
18:45Here's McTominay.
18:46David Neres.
18:56And it's all over with the Bayern fans able to celebrate the win.
19:08Well, it was a very assured performance, wasn't it?
19:11Particularly impressed with their play going forward.
19:13They were really lively and almost cutting through at will at times.
19:17The result never in much doubt.
19:19The moment.
19:36Good morning.
