Bayern face exit as Inzaghi fires Milan

Milan and Barcelona eased into the second phase of the Champions' League last night while 2001 winners Bayern Munich, quarter-finalists in their previous six campaigns, are clinging on after another defeat.

Goals by Serginho and Filippo Inzaghi, his 10th in Europe this season, gave Milan a 2-1 win at San Siro and a superb double over Bayern in Group G to move to 12 points.

The Germans remain on one point but are not yet out thanks to Lens's surprise 3-1 win over Deportivo La Coruña. Deportivo have six points with Lens on four.

Serginho had put Milan ahead in the 11th minute, latching on to a defence-splitting pass from Clarence Seedorf and slipping the ball past the diving Oliver Kahn with a delicate touch from the outside of his left foot.

Michael Tarnat equalised 12 minutes later for Bayern, beating Dida at his near post with a thunderous left-foot strike. However, with Kahn off injured, Inzaghi restored Milan's advantage in the 64th minute and the visitors were left rueing their luck when a header from Elber hit the bar late on.

Frank de Boer's 76th-minute goal was enough for Barcelona to beat Lokomotiv Moscow 1-0 in the Nou Camp, their fourth win in Group H. Club Bruges beat Galatasaray 3-1 to leapfrog their victims into second place on five points to the Turks' four.

In Manchester United's section, Group F, last year's runners-up Bayer Leverkusen continued their recovery with a second successive win over Maccabi Haifa, 2-1 this time, to go second behind United on six points. Olympiakos and Maccabi both have three.

The Croatian midfielder Marko Babic, who hit both goals in Leverkusen's 2-0 victory over the same opponents in Nicosia, opened the scoring for the home side with a header just before half-time.

Maccabi's Croatian midfielder Nenad Pralija put them level in the 53rd minute and Leverkusen needed a header from the Brazilian Juan on 67 minutes to clinch victory.

In Group E, Newcastle United's section, Dynamo Kiev were 2-0 home winners over Feyenoord. The midfielder Alexandr Khatskevich opened the scoring in the 16th minute with a close-range finish after a corner was returned from the right.

The home side made it 2-0 two minutes after the interval when another Belarus international, Valentin Belkevich, fired home from 25 yards.

Without their injured top goalscorer, Pierre van Hooijdonk, Feyenoord were unable to pull back a goal. The win leaves Kiev level on seven points with Juventus while the Rotterdam side are back in third on five.
