"Bayern Munich thrashed Atalanta 6-1 at the New Balance Arena in the first leg, and the Bundesliga champions picked up right where they left off in the return leg, winning 4-1 on the night and 10-2 on overall aggregate, with Vincent Kompany able to make rotations and Jonas Urbig deemed fit enough to start in goal after recovering from a concussion."
"A brace from Harry Kane and goals from Lennart Karl and Luis Díaz rounded out the scoring at the Allianz Arena on a night that was routine for the German Rekordmeister, slightly easing away some of the frustrations from the weekend's controversial, drama-filled 1-1 draw at Bayer Leverkusen."
"Real Madrid is the best team in the history of the Champions League, so it'll be a nice task for us. We want to win. Both teams have so much quality and now only one of them will make it beyond the quarterfinals after the round of 16, with Bayern and Real Madrid considered current frontrunners by pundits across Europe."
