| GOMEZ TREBLE PUTS MICHAEL BALLACK INTO SECOND ... |
Bayern Munich all but sealed their qualification for the Champions League round of 16 with a dramatic 3-2 victory over Napoli. Who joins them will probably be decided by the encounter between Manchester City and Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo later this month. Mario Gomez should have settled the match early on, hitting a hat-trick inside 25 minutes that ensured he overtook Michael Ballack as the leading German goalscorer in the Champions League. However, in a second half that saw both sides reduced to 10 men with the dismissals of Holger Badstuber and Juan Zuninga, Napoli hit back twice though Federico Fernandez without being able force a draw. With Villarreal wrecked by injury, Manchester City enjoyed a second successive victory over the Spaniards with Yaya Toure, twice, and Mario Balotelli on target.© PLANET FOOTBALL 360
