Serge Gnabry 9, Robert Lewandowski 7, Memphis Depay 7: Lyon v Bayern Munich player ratings

German champions reach Champions League final with 3-0 win in Lisbon

LYON: Anthony Lopes – 6, The Portuguese goalkeeper did well to paw away Goretzka’s miscued shot early in the piece. He stood no chance with Gnabry’s goals, but might have come for the cross that led to Lewandowski’s. Reuters

Jason Denayer – 6, Struggled to keep track of Lewandowski and Gnabry in the first half, but was plucky when he and Marcelo were short-handed at the back later on. EPA

Marcelo – 7, His yellow card, for a foul a long way off the ball on Lewandowski, spoke of panic as Bayern started to purr in the first half. AP Photo

Marcal – 6, Fortunate not to be punished when his nervy header presented a chance to Gnabry – and even more so when he was spared a second yellow card in the second. AFP

Maxence Caqueret – 7, Intercepted an Alcantara pass and played smart through ball to set up Depay’s fourth-minute chance. He was bright throughout. AFP

Bruno Guimaraes – 5, Struggled to make an impact in the first half, and was the fall guy as Rudi Garcia shuffled his pack at half time to try to bridge the gap in the second. AFP

Houssem Aouar – 8, Showed plenty of purpose as he tried to keep Lyon in the contest in the second phase. AP Photo

Maxwel Cornet – 7, He was to the fore during Lyon’s fast start, but was unable to get a vital cross past Boateng. That might have been a crucial moment. Reuters

Karl Toko Ekambi – 6, Brilliant run to beat Davies early on, but hit the post when he should have scored, and he hit Neuer’s leg when well placed in the second, too. Reuters

Memphis Depay – 7, Found the side netting when one on one with Neuer in the fourth minute. Was full of endeavour but ran out of puff and made way for Dembele again. EPA

Moussa Dembele – 6, Provided a different threat to Depay, and was more of a focal point for the attack. EPA

Jeff Reine-Adelaide – 7, Brought a much-needed spark when he was one of a raft of changes in the second half, and linked up well with fellow sub Tete. Getty Images

Kenny Tete – 6, Needed greater urgency when he found himself in a good position to cross shortly after coming on. AFP

Rayan Cherki – 6, The 17 year old mishit a shot when well placed almost immediately after coming on for the centre back Machal. PA

BAYERN MUNICH: Manuel Neuer – 7, Luck was on his side when Depay shot wide, and Toko Ekambi struck a post early on. He made a fine block from the latter in the second. AFP

Joshua Kimmich – 6, The full back was in the wars in the first half as Lyon’s young midfielders seemed to be taking turns to crash into him. Suitably solid in defence. AP Photo

Jerome Boateng – 6, Made a crucial block of a cross from Cornet as Lyon enjoyed the better of the opening exchanges. He was replaced at half time. EPA

David Alaba – 7, Provided some dominant defending to help quell Lyon’s bright start. Quite why he took a late free-kick ahead of Lewandowski, who knows? AP

Alphonso Davies – 6, Nowhere near the explosive levels of the Barcelona game, and was given a tough time by Toko Ekambi. AFP

Thiago Alcantara – 7, Was culpable early on when he gave the ball to Caqueret, who split the defence to create a chance for Depay, but otherwise rarely wasted possession. EPA

Leon Goretzka – 8, Saw a bobbling, mishit shot kept out by Lopes, then a fiercely struck drive in the second kept out by his own teammate, Muller. EPA

Serge Gnabry – 9, Bayern might have been 2-0 down when Gnabry struck. His spectacular finish turned the tide. His second, shortly after, could not have been simpler. PA

Thomas Muller – 7, Not an influence for any of the goals, and he headed his clearest chance wide just as the clock was ticking to 90 minutes. EPA

Ivan Perisic – 6, He should have killed the tie at the start of the second half, but hit a tame shot too close to Lopes. He was replaced by Coman not long after. AFP

Robert Lewandowski – 7, Had a very rare shocker in the first half: missed a sitter (which Gnabry followed up to score), had an air shot from a yard out, then got in the way of a goalbound shot by a teammate. Was not to be denied, though, as he netted a fine late header. EPA

SUBS: Niklas Sule – 6, Diligent enough after coming on for Boateng at the interval, and had to be sharp to keep Depay away from the danger area. AP

Kingsley Coman – 7, Typically perky when he was brought on for Perisic, as he went up against a side including his close mate Dembele. AP

Philippe Coutinho – 6, Had one good shooting chance after coming on for the outstanding Gnabry, but saw it deflected wide. AP

Benjamin Pavard – 6, The Frenchman was eased back into action after injury with a brief appearance late on. AP

Corentin Tolisso – 6, He was a ballboy for Lyon the last time these sides met in Europe. He might have scored against his former club, but blazed a shot over in injury time. AP

Serge Gnabry struck twice and Robert Lewandowski scored a late header as Bayern Munich booked their place in the Champions League final with a 3-0 win over Lyon in Lisbon.

Although the Germans were overwhelming favourites to make it through, Lyon made the early running, and should have been ahead after chances fell to Memphis Depay and Karl Toko Ekambi.

Once Gnabry had struck a powerful drive into the top corner after 18 minutes, though, the result rarely seemed in any doubt.

Bayern will play their 11th European Cup final, when they face Paris Saint-Germaine – who will be playing their first – at the Estadio da Luz on Sunday.
