Teenager Jamal Musiala became Bayern Munich's youngest-ever goalscorer in the Champions League as he helped his team rout Lazio 4-1 in the first leg of the round of 16. Musiala also became the second-youngest player to score in the knockout stage of the competition when he netted Bayern's second goal. Bojan is the youngest, having netted for Barcelona aged 17 years and 217 days in 2008. Musiala, who is eligible to play for either Germany or England, is 17 years and 363 days. Musiala posted pictures on Twitter of him celebrating his goal, with the caption: "A night to remember."
Robert Lewandowski had earlier given Bayern the lead after a howler from Lazio and Leroy Sané put the defending champion firmly in control at the end of the first half. Francesco Acerbi netted an own goal at the start of the second half as Lazio's first appearance in the Champions League knockout stage for 20 years went from bad to worse. Joaquín Correa scored a consolation for the Italian side, which was woeful defensively. "It was a fantastic night. If you score four goals in Rome it means you had a really great game and achieved something special," said Lewandowski, who was named UEFA Player of the Match. "The Champions League is something that you wait for for weeks and today we showed our best qualities," the Poland striker added. "But we know we can still do even better."
