"The key to our success was the red card and the goal just before the break," said coach Jupp Heynckes after his "nervous" Bayern side beat Beşiktaş 5-0 to all but book their UEFA Champions League quarter-final spot.Domagoj Vida's 16th-minute dismissal did not provoke an immediate collapse from the round of 16 debutants, and Heynckes was less than thrilled with his team until Thomas Müller put them ahead on 43 minutes. "In the first half we lacked tempo, our passing wasn't precise enough and it allowed Beşiktaş to play," he said, adding that Bayern "were a different team in the second half".
