Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of Bayern Muniich against FC Zurich in the first leg of their Champions League play-off tie.

There goes the final whistle! A comfortable 2-0 win for Bayern, who will surely go on to book their place in the group stages.

We are into two minutes of time added on.

Schweinsteiger appeals for a penalty seconds later after taking a tumble, but the flag had gone up. Ribery none too amused.

A red card for Beda! He is booked for a second yellow after a foul on Ribery. That completes a pretty rotten night for Zurich.

Gomez has had a frustrating night for Bayern, but not as difficult as Zurich's. The Swiss team really out of their depth at this level, it must be said.

Another chance for Gomez, but he sees the ball fly over the bar from Muller's pass. Great save from Leoni, who gets a hand to it. Leoni has earned his money tonight.

Bayern continue to dominate possession. Up to 62% now and 20 attempts at the Zurich goal as Ribery picks up out wide.

Not sure that Bayern will pull another goal of the hat here as Ribery whacks over the bar from outside of the area.

A change coming for Zurich as Chermiti departs to be replaced by Drmic. Chermiti must be shattered. A thankless task for him this evening.

Djuric dashes back to clear off the line after Gomez had rounded Leoni. So close to number three, but fine defending.

On we go then into the closing 10 minutes of a one-sided affair in which Zurich have managed only three shots at the target. Bayern have had 17.

Bayern ending the night as they started it with plenty of possession. Gomez almost on the end of a cross, but a relieved Leoni collects.

Another shot seconds later from Robben! He had his eyes on the prize, but tugs the shot to the left of the goal. Leoni continues to be on his guard.

Ribery drives into the Zurich box, but can't find the power on the shot as Leoni makes a comfortable stop from the French winger.

Bayern would dearly love to make the final of the tournament on their home surface. Would be unique to start and end the tournament in Munich.

Gustavo has been doing some fouling this evening. Amazing he hasn't been booked yet. More nice play by Djuric, but the move again founders as Bayern block the shot as the ball makes its way through to Neuer.

Djuric tries to turn a shot into the net, but he is running out of pitch as he lobs the ball well over the bar. Bayern good for their advantage.

A third goal would surely finish this one before next week, but Zurich have never lost heart as Mehmedi embarks on a run into the home half.

That should ease tension a bit before the return leg next week. 2-0 is a very handy lead, but Leoni should have perhaps done better with that shot by Robben.

GOAL!! Robben for Bayern!! Can't say it wasn't coming as he clips a swerving shot high into the net over Leoni. Supplied by Muller and finished by the Dutch winger.
