Most of this morning's publications in Germany focused on Bayern Munich's exit from the Champions League to Real Madrid. But Bild was particularly damning in their judgement that a penalty should have awarded to Bayern when Marcelo handled a Kimmich centre which was heading into the box.

Bad luck? Or a lack of quality?
For everyone else, it was an opportunity for Bayern to look back to see where they went wrong: Die Welt went with the player's own conclusion that a golden opportunity had been passed up: "Bayern players moaned, particularly about their own impotence"; Der Spiegel asked: "Where was Lewandowski?" while Kicker threw out the question to whether Bayern's elimination was down to luck on Madrid's part, bad luck on Bayern's part or just a lack of quality throughout the side".
