FC Bayern München kept alive their hopes of reaching the UEFA Champions League knockout stages after beating Maccabi Haifa FC 1-0 on Wednesday.
In need of three points and good fortune to stand a chance of emerging from Group A along with FC Girondins de Bordeaux, Bayern's prayers were answered as the French side defeated Juventus 2-0 and Ivica Olić's 62nd-minute goal completed home-and-away wins against the Israeli challengers. The performance may not have been convincing, but this success means Louis van Gaal's team head to Turin on Matchday 6 knowing victory will take them through at the Bianconeri's expense.
