Half-Time analysis for Bayern Munich

Neuer: Well beaten on all three goals and nearly conceded another when he found himself swimming after failing to punch away a loose ball.

Lahm: Ronaldo lost him on Madrid’s third, and at this point he might be wishing he was stationed in midfield.

Boateng: Conceded the corner ahead of Madrid’s second goal.

Dante: Conceded the free kick that allowed Madrid to take the lead.

Alaba: Nowhere near Bale as the Welshman scampered downfield to set up Ronaldo

Kroos: Already has touched the ball 63 times, but has created nothing of note.

Robben: Well covered by Coentrao so far.

Muller: Distribution in the final third has been accurate, although next to meaningless.

Schweinsteiger: Good passing numbers, but he has yet to create a meaningful goalscoring opportunity.

Ribery: Should have been sent off for a slap on Carvajal.

Mandzukic: Just 17 touches in the first half.

Full-Time analysis for Bayern Munich

Neuer: Was furious with his defense at times but might have been better-positioned to stop Ronaldo’s free kick.

Lahm: Completed a typical 94% of his passes but failed to link up with Robben down the right.

Boateng: Was exposed defending set pieces.

Dante: Overall, a night he’ll want to forget.

Alaba: One of Bayern’s brighter players on the night, he carried the load down the left with Ribery AWOL.

Kroos: He touched the ball 139 times but failed to carve out a single, meaningful opening.

Robben: Pulled a shot from dangerous space just wide of the far post shortly after the restart.

Muller: The fans made their displeasure heard when he was withdrawn in the 72nd minute.

Schweinsteiger: He passed for accuracy but created little going forward and struggled when Madrid went on the counter.

Ribery: He has been abysmal in 2014, and Tuesday was one of his poorer showings.

Mandzukic: Withdrawn at the break.

J.Martinez: Came on to start the second half as Bayern went into damage-control mode.

Gotze: Had one good opportunity in an 18-minute showing.

Pizarro: Just four touches of the ball in 18 minutes.
