    It's gone very, very quiet in here. It's almost as if the fans have gone, "Oh, we'll go on and win this now." They're relaxing into the lovely, warm Munich evening.

    That was beautiful to watch. It deserved a finish. Salah should score but what a move again.

    What a counter that was.

    Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid

    A wonderful Liverpool move ends with Mo Salah striking the post.

    He should have scored but Atletico are let off the hook and are still in this.

    Maresca will be found out at this level, which is already showing. Chelsea need to get shot of him quick and get someone more experienced in.

  7. Maresca was too slow to reactpublished at 21:26 BST 17 September

    Bayern Munich 3-1 Chelsea

    Nizaar Kinsella
    BBC Sport Chelsea reporter

    Chelsea have been good today but were way too slow to react against an increasingly dominant Bayern Munich.

    That third goal from Harry Kane had been coming, and manager Enzo Maresca arguably should have reacted sooner, with a vastly deeper bench at his disposal than opposite number Vincent Kompany.

    This is where inexperience is hurting Chelsea.

    At this level if you make a mistake, you get punished. There are not many players in world football that will punish you so viciously than Kane if you give them the chance.

    Bayern Munich 3-1 Chelsea

    That is 10 goals in six games for Harry Kane this season for Bayern Munich. Ridiculous.

  10. Postpublished at 21:26 BST 17 September

    Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid

    Atletico, who started with 11 players behind the ball before being blown away by two quick early goals, are now attacking in waves.

    They feel they can still snatch something from this.

    Brilliant from Kane but Chelsea give the ball away too easily. Gusto tries to dive in to get the ball away with a toe poke, but he gives it straight to Kane. He just caresses it around the defender and inside the far post. What a scoring season he is having yet again.

    Maresca making any subs tonight?

    Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid

    Now a couple of Atletico changes.

    Conor Gallagher and France World Cup winner Antoine Griezmann have been replaced by Nahuel Molina and Alexander Sorloth.

    PSG 3-0 Atalanta

    The ball sits up nicely for Nikola Krstovic on the edge of the box. He connects sweetly but it loops into the gloves of Lucas Chevalier.

    Anyone remember when PSG were rubbish in the competition this time last year?

    GOAL - Bayern Munich 3-1 Chelseapublished at 21:22 BST 17 September

    Harry Kane (63 mins)

    Chelsea make a mess of this and Bayern are two goals ahead.

    Malo Gusto tries to play a backpass but doesn't get it right and puts Harry Kane in on goal. Robert Sanchez isn't back in position from a pass he played a couple of moments earlier and the England man slots home.

    So, a 57-minute outing for Alexander Isak on his debut.

    It ends without a goal but plenty of positive glimpses from Liverpool's new No 9.

    Bayern have had three excellent chances now in the second half. Diaz fired straight at Sanchez, then Kane was denied by the legs of Sanchez, and now the miss from Olise. They could easily have restored their two-goal cushion.
