After they were beaten in their first two matches against Arsenal and AC Milan, Bayern won thanks to goals from Rafinha and a brace from Thomas Muller, while Marcos Alonso and Michy Batshuayi scored for Chelsea, reports Efe.
Bayern ran out of steam in the last few minutes before the break, when Chelsea gained some ground to score their first goal after missing some chances, thanks to a shot from Alonso.
Although Bayern's momentum continued in the second half, Chelsea was more decisive as they made the most of one of a handful of real chances they got to double their tally with a shot from Batshuayi, with only five minutes left of the match.
