Bayern Runs All Over Chelsea, Napoli Holds Barcelona in Champions League

Serge Gnabry scored twice as Bayern Munich all but secured its place in the quarterfinals of the Champions League with a 3-0 win at Chelsea in the opening leg of the round of 16 on Tuesday. In the day's other game, Barcelona was unimpressive but scrambled its way to a 1-1 draw at Napoli.

Bayern was much the better side at Stamford Bridge, but it didn’t take the lead until the 51st minute following a one-two between Gnabry and Robert Lewandowski. Another combination between the pair brought a second three minutes later, before the Polish striker got the third.
