Victoria Plzen concede five and could have much, much more
David vs Goliath. Giants vs Minnows. Favourites vs Underdogs. Bayern Munich vs Victoria Plzen.
And unlike those myths and fairytales, there's no chance in real life that those tiny ones could hurt, let alone destroy the superpower. Moreover, it was a proper demolition and a significant record broken by the Bavarian giants - this has been Bayern's 31st Champions League group stage win in a row! In a row!
Amazing stuff, indeed.

So, what about tonight's game? It was as one-sided as it gets, with the hosts netting three times in the opening 20 minutes to kill the game and any possible suspense instantly.
Sane, Gnabry and Mane teamed up perfectly with once-more unplayable Musiala to knock down the visitors and make a statement at Allianz Arena. Three different scorers demonstrate the versatility and Bayern's amusing arsenal of attacking options and skills.

Not much changed after the break, as the Czechs were looking only at how to avoid a total humiliation and disgrace confronted with a much stronger rival.

This is utter humiliation

It didn't bother Nagelsmann's boys too much, as Sane added one more before Cameroonian star Choupo-Moting sealed another incredible win with Bayern's fifth goal of the match.
