Liverpool 0 Bayern Munich 0: Forwards fail to fire in Anfield stalemate

Liverpool and Bayern Munich fought out a goalless draw in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie at Anfield on Tuesday.

Liverpool failed to stamp their authority on a battling Bayern Munich as a 0-0 first-leg draw at Anfield left their Champions League last-16 tie in the balance.

The Premier League side produced the more promising attacking moments against a circumspect opponent but are likely to need an away goal when the teams reconvene at Allianz Arena on March 13.

Jurgen Klopp, robbed of Virgil van Dijk and Dejan Lovren through suspension and injury, will at least be pleased with the way his back four navigated the rare instances of danger posed to them by the German champions.
