Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri was pleased with players for the Champions League win against Bayern Munich.

Lazio won the first-leg of their round 16 tie 1-0 thanks to Ciro Immobile's successful penalty.

Sarri later said: “It was a victory earned with application, effort and suffering.

“There is great satisfaction at beating one of the best teams in Europe, but also regrets that we wasted opportunities late on.

“We moved throughout the game like an entity with one mind. It was normal to have moments of suffering within it, but we also had lots of scoring opportunities. Fortunately, we converted one of them."

However, Sarri added: “In the final 15 minutes, we seemed more worried about bringing home the victory than making it an even wider advantage."

On the return-leg, Sarri warned: “Tuchel has won far more than me, so he will know what to do. Bayern are a strong team and I was impressed by several of their players who came off the bench, for instance Tel."
