Defending champions Bayern Munich proved they remain the team to beat in the Champions League with a classy 3-1 win at Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.
.
Playing in England for the first time since their victory over Borussia Dortmund in last season's final, Pep Guardiola's side gave City a lesson in relentless attacking to take control of Group D.
.
A goalkeeping error from Joe Hart helped Franck Ribery give the visitors a seventh-minute lead and they added further goals from Thomas Mueller and Arjen Robben in the second half.
.
Substitute Alvaro Negredo replied in the 80th minute, before former City player Jerome Boateng saw red for a last-man foul on Yaya Toure, but on the ground where they had crushed derby rivals Manchester United just 10 days ago, City were deservedly beaten.
