Lahm bemoans tactics after Real humiliation

Bayern Munich captain Philipp Lahm admitted his side got their tactics horribly wrong in the first half of their Champions League humiliation at home to Real Madrid.

The Bundesliga champions were blown away before the break as Madrid raced into a 3-0 lead, 4-0 on aggregate, thanks to two Sergio Ramos headers and a Cristiano Ronaldo effort.

It was an astonishingly inept display from a side which had been the dominant force in Europe over the past 18 months. Ronaldo added his second at the death to book Madrid’s place in the final. “We’re very disappointed because we set our sights high, but suddenly we were 2-0 down after 20 minutes from two set-pieces,” Lahm said.
