00:02to an ideal evening for football there is a barely a cloud evident the world and his wife
00:10have gone to great lengths to be here for a match of great consequence and massive interest
00:16in these parts barely a breath of wind so the football has no excuses for not being at its
00:23very best the teams i know are pumped for this they are fantastic scenes in the stands
00:28there is a great sense of drama here a great sense of excitement and expectation
00:35the world famous camp new in barcelona a stadium fit for the grandest of occasions
00:43two high profile high caliber teams this is a welcome event for all these supporters yes peter
00:51it's a shame it's only a friendly but then again that may help us see a more expressive attacking
00:57contest and i'd be prepared to settle for a clash of of lesser intensity in favor of of
01:04lots of flair skill and plenty of tricks and a few goals i suspect i've probably overstretched
01:10my my level of greed here and already we're underway here
01:17he's had a go
01:21forward it goes
01:24benzema
01:28benzema
01:30and he's searching through and the shots
01:34oh shame that was nicely worked benzema made himself the key component of a very good move
01:41that's how you get behind the defense
01:50and here's canapri
01:51oh no that's not the ball he wanted
02:05coman was alert to the possibilities but in the end it's fruitless
02:15alaba
02:19goreczka
02:21decent early chances
02:23it bodes well for an exciting game
02:26it's been intercepted and that will come to nothing
02:30coman
02:31tried to play it through
02:32has a look and has a go
02:35oh
02:36five stop from the keeper
02:38well what can i say
02:39truly wonderful goalkeeper
02:44gets wrestled off the ball
02:48could be a pitch one
02:51goal
02:52bayern munich
02:58given such an open invitation
03:00he was always going to shoot
03:02well it's pretty damning on the part of that defense peter that he was allowed
03:06so much time and space
03:07but i think
03:08you have to give credit where it's due
03:10and it was a brilliant set up and finish
03:38Bayern Munich
03:39themselves into the lead
03:41Yeah, and they know there's plenty of work left in this one, Peter, before they can actually say that the
03:46job is over
03:49Pavard
03:51Pavard to play it forward
03:53Cuts it out
03:55Yeah, that's top defending in preventing him turning, which can open up many possibilities
04:03And it's Muller
04:05Muller needed to come up with a better ball
04:07Yeah, the idea was right, the delivery wasn't, they can revisit that further on
04:18Gureczka
04:20Kimmich
04:22Pavard
04:23Pavard plays it forward
04:27Bale battles to win it back
04:30Oh, well intercepted, really alert to the danger
04:34Let's put a stop to that
04:48Good idea, just poorly executed
04:55It's Lewandowski
04:58He's pulled off a fine save
05:00Lewandowski
05:01Really must have felt he had the measure of the keeper then
05:04But how wrong he was
05:07Bayern Munich
05:08Try it again now
05:15Massive leap
05:18Oh, that's a fine save
05:20Koeman simply didn't do anything wrong
05:23He was thwarted by brilliance
05:32Towering header
05:33Really well taken goal
05:38Two up
05:39And threatening to pull clear
05:46A great delivery
05:47And a finish to match
05:49Well look, it's often the timing of the jump
05:52That dictates what you can do with any header
05:54And if you get it slightly wrong
05:55Then you'll struggle
05:56But that was beautifully met
05:58It really was
06:16Bayern Munich
06:18Grab a couple of goals without reply
06:20It's 2-0
06:21No doubt as to who has the momentum here now
06:24The only doubt is how many is coming
06:28Gnabry
06:28He has a goal
06:31They are rampant
06:34All too easy
06:36They are in danger of disappearing out of sight
06:44He does it all with an air of efficiency and simplicity
06:49Well, how's that for composure, Peter?
06:52You can see the keeper tried to put as much pressure on him
06:55By staying upright
06:56But it didn't faze him
06:58Not in the slightest
07:19Three without reply
07:21This is becoming a stroll
07:23Well, unsurprisingly, Peter
07:26The opposition look completely stunned
07:28I'm not sure they can gather themselves
07:34Lewandowski
07:34And here's Muller
07:36And he's cut it out
07:44Time and again, they are repelled
07:48Now it's Hazard
07:49And he's shown him a clean pair of heels
07:57Well, the crowd clearly liked what they just saw
07:59Some real no-nonsense defending
08:08Fired in
08:15Kavar
08:22Kivik
08:24Kivik
08:25Goes looking
08:28That's a foul
08:29Free kick's been given
08:45Managed to get it away
08:49Cut out in the nick of time
08:52Yet another to add to football's endless list of could-haves and should-haves
08:57Ah, quality deserted them when they really needed it
09:02And here's Lewandowski
09:05Davies
09:06And it's played forward
09:08And he's straight offside
09:22Alaba
09:26Goretzka
09:27Tries to get it forward quickly
09:33Lewandowski
09:33Koeman
09:40And the shots
09:41And this was gone
09:43Because he was looking for offside
09:52And it's Hazard
09:54He's on his way
09:56Hazard
09:57Hazard
10:15And a goal kick
10:19And a goal kick
10:27Kimmich
10:28Kivik drives it forward
10:31Needed a better pass there
10:34Bale
10:37Bayern Munich
10:38Really are
10:39Enduring a frustrating spell
10:41When it comes to
10:42Trying to move the ball around the midfield
10:44They lack the sharpness
10:45It's Benzema
10:53That's going to be the final action of the first half
10:55And as easy as 1-2-3
10:58It really has been that straightforward
11:01Halfway through the match
11:02But very little to suggest that much more change
11:04Over the second half
11:10So off we go once more
11:13Well I'm sure the managers talk the talk
11:15And now it's time for these players to walk the walk
11:18And deliver a rousing response
11:19To a rousing team talk
11:25Benzema
11:25He's gone away
11:29Great challenge
11:30Time to perfection
11:33Regardless of the outcome
11:34It is good to see someone running at the defence like that
11:39Chance to shoot
11:42Lewandowski
11:44Modric
11:46Modric with a long pass
11:50Pavard
11:52Pavard switches it towards the other side
11:55And he's going long
11:57Alaba gets it back
12:07Lewandowski
12:08Coman
12:11Coman
12:12Unable to make it happen
12:13For all his good intentions
12:20Hoists it forward
12:23Tries to stroke it through
12:25Very well to intervene
12:29He acknowledges that he should have come up with something better there
12:32Peter his body shape was a giveaway before he made the pass
12:36And it's obviousness was appreciated
12:41Sergio Ramos goes up and over
12:47That's our real chance
12:57And it's played forward
13:05Questions were asked
13:06But he's given the answers
13:08Now it's Benzema
13:10Benzema
13:15Davies
13:22Gnabry goes looking
13:26Forward it goes
13:29How many interceptions have we seen now
13:31Someone's got to up the quality
13:33And set an example
13:36Tries to get it forward quickly
13:38Schuller does well there
13:40Alert
13:45Needless to say
13:46He was expecting a better ball
13:47Than that
13:48Tries to get it forward quickly
13:56He's through the middle
14:13Davies
14:17And it's Muller
14:21To throw in
14:26And once more
14:27They can't get through
14:29Hoists it forward
14:31Oh well defended
14:32That had to be done
14:41Davies
14:43And it's played forward
14:46He's looked long this time
14:47He's pinged one through here
14:50Benzema
14:50Conceived a free kick
14:52For that
15:23There's a long ball
15:25He's picked him out
15:38Pavard goes looking
15:42Looses his balance
15:43And loses the ball
15:47He's through
15:48Now is he in
15:49It's Assar
16:02Casemiro
16:06Gnabry
16:07Already of course
16:08On the score sheet
16:11Promising move
16:12That good inroads
16:13Into enemy territory
16:14But no joy
16:18That looks a foul
16:20Yep
16:20Referee's given it
16:21Good challenge
16:23He just stood firm
16:25Benzema
16:26Really got caught
16:27In a trap there
16:28And he just couldn't get out
16:37Sergio Ramos
16:38Gets into the right position
16:39To intercept
16:45Pass needed to be better than that
16:46And he knows it
16:48And he's made sure
16:49That that won't get through
16:50Hit long
16:51And direct
16:53Neuer
16:54That's him
16:55Speculative strike
16:57Coma
16:58Forward it goes
17:01Casemiro
17:02Tries to get it forward
17:04Quickly
17:14That's a throw
17:21And that's put
17:23Pay to a promising move
17:28Long ball
17:30But not especially
17:31Accurate
17:40And it's Lewandowski
17:45Gnabry
17:46Gnabry
17:47Plays it forward
17:49Oh real danger
17:51Here
17:53Tries lifting it over
17:55Oh good interception
17:57Back to the keeper
17:58And try something new
18:03Havar
18:04Goes looking
18:07Muller
18:08He's had that
18:09Put on a plate
18:15Hoist it forward
18:18Now it's Benzema
18:23It'll be a throw
18:29That's R
18:35And he's looking at the referee
18:37But the referee
18:38Is shaking his head
18:44Levent
18:44Has a puck
18:46Oh the keeper's done
18:48Just about enough
18:56Gets his head to it
18:59Decent attempt
19:00But not quite good enough
19:09Now it's Benzema
19:12Benzema
19:12Gets it out to the wing
19:19Referee looks at his watch
19:21And blows his whistle
19:23Well the scoreline
19:24Doesn't tell the whole story
19:25They watch
