THE BIGGER PICTURE: A much-improved Bayern Munich came out flying in the second half, with Sane's goal making it 2-0 to the German side following Lucas Hernandez's headed opener from a corner. This was a rematch of last year's Champions League group stage clashes, which Bayern Munich won 3-0 both home and away.
WHAT NEXT FOR BAYERN MUNICH: Victory against Barcelona gives Julian Nagelsmann's Bayern a needed confidence boost, which they must now use to avoid slipping to four Bundesliga games without victory on Saturday.
