Bayern Munich Cruise into the Champions League Final

Bayern Munich swept Lyon aside in the Champions League semi final winning 3-0 in Lyon last night. Leading 1-0 from the first leg a goal from Olic after 26 miutes effectively finished off the tie and he completed his hat trick with two more in the second half.

Lyon had a few chances but never really looked like getting anything from the game and they will have to wait another season at least before they reach a Champions league final for the 1st time. Bayern on the other hand have won the Final in its various guises 4 times including winning it for 3 consecutive yeards between 1974 and 1976. They are now well on course for a historic treble, being in the final of the German cup and they are top of the Bundesliga with 2 games to go.
