Cape Town - Bayern will need a Munich miracle to retain their dream of reaching the Champions League final on home soil after the five-time champions slumped to a 3-0 defeat at Barcelona in their semi-final first leg on Wednesday.
The Bavarians were hoping to set the foundations for their fourth final appearance in six seasons next month in Berlin, and a first under coach Pep Guardiola, with a solid display in Spain.
Instead they were outclassed by the Catalans, who scored three times in the last 13 minutes to go into next week's return leg as overwhelming favourites after Bayern ran out of steam towards the end of the game.
