Bayern Munich made it another routine win with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Barcelona at the Allianz Arena.
Barcelona stood toe-to-toe with the hosts in the first installment of the game and came close to finding the opener on few occasions only to be dispatched comfortably after the recess.
Given the Blaugrana’s resurgence under Xavi there was revenge in the air — the Bavarians have been walking over Barcelona in recent meetings and this encounter was supposed to be different but it quite did not.
Lucas Hernandez headed in at the near post to put Bayern ahead in the 50th minute before Leroy Sane doubled the tally just after four minutes to seal the win.
Lewandowski return did not go to plan as the Polish spurned a number of clear openings in an all-round entertaining clash.
Bayern Munich are clear in Group C with six points from two games while Barcelona are leveled on three points with Inter Milan, who edged Viktoria Plzen 2-0 in the Czech Republic with goals coming from Edin Dzeko and Denzel Dumfries.
