Croatian right-back Josip Stanišić opened up the scoring for Bayern Munich Tuesday night in an absolute thumping of Atalanta in the 1st leg of the Champions League Round of 16, winning 6-1 on the road. He was perfectly placed in front of the goal for an easy tap-in to make it 1-0. Stanišić played 86 minutes and earned a 7.8 SofaScore rating for his efforts. Barring a collapse, Bayern will play the winner of Real Madrid/Man City in the Champions League quarterfinals.
Mario Pašalić scored a late injury time consolation goal to break Bayern’s clean sheet. It was an easy tap-in as Atalanta will now have to overcome a 5-goal deficit in Bavaria to prolong their European season.

Poor Igor Tudor, he is the Biblical Jobe re-incarnate, needs to keep the faith. Hopefully his wife does not leave him.
Igor will have a press conference Friday in advance of Anfield Sunday
It’s been confirmed
So he is still the manager
They both read each play well with perfect timing in the box. That’s what we need. Our big defenders to push up on a corner. Stanišić and Gvardiol are 6’1. Vušković is 6,4, Pasalic is 6’2. Pongracic is 6’3, Caleta-Car is 6’4. We have so much height our on side. Matanovic is 6’2. We just need speed to feed these guys. I imagine our team as being the German wall in 2014. Lahm, Boateng, Hummels, and I forget the other guys. Speed might not be on our side past our side given the ages. I could be wrong but lots of our goals will have to come from rebounds, give and gos, and free kicks.
