90'
Hernandez knocks Correa off balance as Atletico win a free-kick in dangerous territory. But it comes to nothing. TWO minutes will be added on.
88'
Nice hit from Joao Felix, but the whistle had already gone for a Bayern free-kick. That sums up his night.
86'
Over! Joao Felix whips it over the wall but harmlessly over the bar. It has been another underwhelming performance from the youngster.
85'
Correa buys a soft free-kick from Alaba, giving Atletico an opportunity for a consolation goal...
83'
Triple Bayern sub: Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is on for Lewandowski, Javi Martinez replaces Goretzka, and Alphonso Davies comes on for Muller.

Who saw this coming? Bayern have been almost unplayable, but Atletico Madrid have been so .... meek.

Double Bayern sub: Job done, so here comes back-up - Bouna Sarr replaces Pavard and Douglas Costa comes on for Coman, who won't get his treble after all.

GOAL! Bayern Munich 4-0 Atletico Madrid (Kingsley Coman): What a superb goal to make it FOUR! Atletico's defence is too high, and Muller can easily release Coman. Twisting and turning, he leaves his marker in his wake, before burying it past Oblak. He's on a hat-trick now!

67'
Oblak is complaining that he was unsighted by Muller, who may have been in an offside position. VAR should probably have checked that.
66'
GOAL! Bayern Munich 3-0 Atletico Madrid (Corentin Tolisso): Oh my, an early contender for goal of the competition as Tolisso puts the game beyond doubt! He lashes one into the top corner from 25 yards, leaving Oblak with no chance!

Atleti should score! The visitors break, led by Joao Felix. He releases Carrasco with a beautifully-weighted pass but he strikes it well wide of the near post.
63'
Bayern are sending out a message to the rest of the Champions League with this performance. They're making easy work of the supposed best defence in Europe.
60'
Muller goes close! Pavard heads the ball into the feet of Muller, who shoots with his laces but slices his effort wide! That was a huge chance to put the game to bed!
