Bayern's prospects of making it to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals were not so flattering, but Pep Guardiola's side was able to shut up all their naysayers by blasting Porto 6-1. With this win, the Bavarians gave their coach another reason to smile, since he will be coaching his sixth straight semi-final stage in the world's most relevant Club tournament.
Thiago Alcantara, Thomas Müller, Xabi Alonso, Jerome Boateng and a brace by Robert Lewandowski shaped the heavy result against the Portuguese side, while Jackson Martinez restored a little pride to Julen Lopetegui's team, which wasn't able to perform nearly as well as they did last week in Portugal.
Fans had a field day talking about the German champions' display, even when Pep Guardiola's pants tore aparte after celebrating one of his team's goals. Find out what fans and experts think about this game's outcome.

That third Bayern goal, with Thiago's ridiculous first-touch pass to Lahm, before Müller and Lewandowski. Goal of the season for me.
