Bayern Munich left it late to beat a dogged 10-man Florentina with a controversial last-minute goal to hand the German giants a 2-1 win, making it 13 in a row in all competitions. German international striker Miroslav Klose headed home in the 89th minute after the ball went loose from a long distance shot from Dutch international Arjen Robben, but he was in a clear offside position.

The strike gave the Bundesliga outfit a slender advantage when the two sides head to Florence for the second leg on March 9, with the Italians clinging to a precious away goal. After the game, Klose admitted that he was offside, saying: "I haven't seen the replay but it felt like I was offside." Shown the replay, he acknowledged that the goal should not have been given.
