Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of the Champions League Group E opener between Bayern Munich and Manchester City from the Allianz Arena.

Arjen Robben has come off his bench to do a spot of warming up here. Wonder when we will see the Dutchman?

Chance for Lahm to unload a shot from distance, but he screws the shot wide.

Alonso delivers a corner for the home side, but easy enough for City to deal with before Demichelis is penalised for a late one on Lewandowski.

Off we go then for the second half of this match. Should be a good one.

The first half finishes. City will be happy enough with the score level at 0-0.

We are now into one minute of time added on in this first half.

Kompany has picked up a yellow card for some reason. Late on on Muller. Dzeko appears to be toiling with a back problem.

Hart again quickly off his line to punch clear the ball from the Lahm cross. Morer impressive play.

Dzeko back on his feet thankfully. But he is going to be booked for dangerous play. Which is quite ridiculous really.

Dzeko on the ground with some knee problems after a tackle on Gotze. Not sure what is up with him.

Sagna with the header at goal from the Nasri corner, but easy enough for Neuer to swat away in the end. Still, bright enough moment for the England champions.

Navas earns a corner for the visiting side here. What can City do with this chance?

A bit more frustration for Pep Guardiola in that Bayern technical area. He probably knows his side should be ahead here.

Another fine piece of goalkeeping by Hart to stand up as Robert Lewandowski rounded him. Angle was too narrow and he fires into the side netting.

Boateng throws a high free-kick into the heart of the City box, but Hart is quickly off his line to collect.
