Robertson – Liverpool
Bayern Munich head coach Niko Kovac said his side were deservedly eliminated by Liverpool in the Champions League last 16.
Following last month’s scoreless stalemate on Merseyside, Bayern were no match for Liverpool – who condemned the German giants to their earliest European exit since 2010-11.
Speaking afterwards, Kovac told Sky: “We had a strong opponent and we have to congratulate Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.
“They were better in these two matches and we deserved to lose. The opponent attacked us very high and left no spaces, that made it difficult for us.
“On top of that it was not our best day. Liverpool are a top team in Europe and they showed us our limits.”
