An eye-watering curler from Rodri set the tone for Bayern's destruction, as Bernardo Silva and Erling Haaland gave City the advantage ahead of the second-leg tie in Munich, the BBC reports.

According to Eurosport, it would take a mighty miracle for Tuchel's charges to overturn the scoreline when both sides clash next Wednesday.

Nonetheless, considering how the former Chelsea coach nearly ousted Real Madrid at the same stage last season, it will be too early to write him off.

Fans troll Tuchel after loss

@vini_ball gave a brutal assessment of Tuchel:

"The only reason Thomas Tuchel is rated like that is a fluke UCL win and an even worse run to the COVID UCL final."

@ChaaliiyKay, on the other hand, jabbed the manager for supervising Bayern's first Champions League defeat of the season:

"Bayern Munich haven't lost any game in the UCL this season until they employed Thomas Tuchel."

@imbrakoby wrote:

"They might sack Thomas Tuchel sooner than later."

Another user, @badboy_jerry, aimed a dig at the 49-year-old tactician, describing him as a downgrade of his predecessor:

"I don't care what y'all think. Thomas Tuchel is a downgrade on Julian Nagelsmann. Bayern Munich are paying for their sins."

@Aboa_Banku1 savagely trolled the former Chelsea manager for opting to start Sadio Mane and Thomas Muller from the bench:

"You bench Thomas Muller and Mane, and you want to win. Thomas Tuchel is sick."

Takeaways from Tuchel's chastening defeat

Sports Brief reported that Man City versus Bayern Munich was definitely the pick of the quarter-final ties and the game certainly lived up to its billing.

With a semi-final spot up for grabs, Pep Guardiola's charges produced a masterclass performance to keep their search for the Champions League alive.

The Man City boss mapped out a strategy which dealt with Tuchel, a man touted as the Spaniard's kryptonite, in the first leg of the tie with the Bavarians.
