Highlights.

MOTM: M. Guendouzi.

Thomas Tuchel has lost 10 of his 43 competitive matches as FC Bayern coach, which is already as many defeats as his predecessor Julian Nagelsmann suffered in 84 games in charge of the club.

This is the 15th time Bayern Munich have lost the first leg of a two-legged UEFA Champions League knockout tie; they have been eliminated on each of the last seven occasions they have done so, last overturning a first-leg deficit to progress in the 2014-15 quarter-final v Porto.

Since the start of the 2016/17 season at least, Bayern have failed to register a shot on target in just two Champions League games:

  • R16 (A) vs. Liverpool (Feb 2019)
  • R16 (A) vs. Lazio (Feb 2024)

Ciro Immobile, who has scored 11 goals in 13 UEFA Champions League home games, scored his 10th goal of the season in all competitions, meaning he has now hit double figures in all eight of his seasons with Lazio.

Lazio have won a match in the knockout stage of the Champions League for the second time in their history- after a 1-0 win v Valencia in 2000; furthermore, the last Italian team to beat Bayern Munich in a European competition was Inter in 2011.

Dayot Upamecano is only the third player to receive a red card in the UEFA Champions League on Valentine’s Day, after Roque Junior (2001, Milan vs PSG) and Benjamin Pavard (2023, Bayern Munich vs PSG).

Lazio have won three consecutive home games in the UEFA Champions League for just a second time, previously doing so from March to September 2000. They have won three in a row on home soil while also keeping a clean sheet each time for the first time in the competition.

Dayot Upamecano has received his first-ever straight red card in the Champions League.

Ciro Immobile has now scored 4 Champions League goals this season. That is double the amount of any other Lazio player.
