    Things might not be going to plan for Bayern so far but there's some pretty decent options sitting on that bench. 

    Who will Pep turn to first? Thomas Muller? Mario Gotze? Sven Ulreich? 

    Maybe not Sven Ulreich.

    Bayern Munich are learning what plenty of sides before them have found out - Atletico build a red-and-white wall that is difficult to get past. The German side cannot find a gap, nip around either side nor lump the ball over it. Our average position graphic below shows how compact the home side set up.

    Helles Mammut: To have a chance against Atletico you don't have to play football, you have to work football.

    Nick Jepson: Simeone and Atletico are kryptonite to the tiki-taka supermen of Barca and Bayern.

    Dennis Waithera: If there is a midfield player who can reach the heights of Iniesta and Xavi it's Koke.

    All for more 4-4-2, KJ. Still very much my tactic of choice for a certain football management computer game. Can't beat one big striker alongside a small striker. Old school.

    Dan Hayes: Atletico players working like Simeone promised to eat their puppy with some fava beans & a nice chianti if they ease off.  

    KJ Training: 4-4-2. Works well for Leicester, Atletico, and was the trademark of Fergie during his glory years. Dead tactic?

    Seth Gogo Egoeh: I'm just admiring how Clattenburg is allowing the game to flow. That's what Eng referees give you. Not every contact is a foul.

    How do the Atletico players have the energy? Moments after being in the Bayern box for a corner, Antoine Griezmann is back defending to clear Philipp Lahm's cross.

    A lovely move by Atletico ends with Koke's inventive flick being poked behind. The corner, though, doesn't match that move as it is headed away.

    Robert Lewandowski has had one touch inside the Atletico box. One touch. He's getting no service, but that's because Atletico are not allowing him to get any.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 38 mins

    Atletico Madrid 1-0 Bayern Munich

    Every Atletico player is back in their own half when Bayern have the ball but as soon as the home side get it back they attack in numbers. Saul Niguez is off again and jinking past Bayern players until he is brought down by Douglas Costa on the right, midway inside the Bayern half. Booking for Costa.

    Tony Cocozza, Lisbon: Simeone is proving yet again what a great manager he is. Yet he doesn't get half the plaudits Guardiola gets.

    Stefan Savic hardly tore up the Premier League during his brief spell at Manchester City. But it turns out he has been a lucky charm for Atletico since arriving from Fiorentina last summer. So far so good in this game...

    Just the one shot on target for Bayern compared to four for Atletico. Will Pep Guardiola be tempted to mix things up if things stay the same until half-time? It's not quite happened for them so far. Atletico are doing a sterling job of keeping Bayern's attack on a leash as well as keeping the German side's defence honest.

    A rare counter from Bayern as Kingsley Coman speeds into the area from the right but his low cross is too close to Jan Oblak.

    Atletico Madrid 1-0 Bayern Munich

    Bayern's attack is a bit like a bear. Imposing, but quite lumbering. In contrast, there's a bit more zip about Atletico as once again they break at pace with Antoine Griezmann getting into the area but scuffs his shot and Manuel Neuer is able to stab behind.

    Atletico have made 82 passes so far tonight. That's about two and a half a minute.

    Bayern? 246. 

    Pass, pass, pass. The Bayern mantra is being heard loud and clear at the Vicente Calderon. But they can't break down Atleti's rigid defensive shape. Only one shot on target so far for the German giants.
