SAVE: Ederson blocks with his legs after arrowing past Eliseu and shooting low.

Muller again loses the ball on the edge of the area - he looks unfit or at the very least well off the pace.
79'
Vidal is back to clear ahead of Jonas from Pizzi's cross from the right.
78'
Ribery is caught offside from a Muller pass down the left. Bayern have been so ponderous this evening.

Whistles from the home side after Coman overhits a cross towards the back post from the right flank.

This second half has been a bit turgid, to be honest. We have seen nothing from Muller or Lewandowski.
75'
Vidal makes a sliding tackle to get the ball off Fejsa in midfield. The Chilean has been excellent tonight, though on the edge sometimes with his tackling.
