Thomas Muller has rubbed salt in Lionel Messi 's wounds by saying that things "always go well" for Bayern Munich against the legendary Argentine - unlike when they used to face Cristiano Ronaldo.
After Bayern cruised to a 2-0 victory over a limp Paris Saint-Germain side on Wednesday, winning 3-0 on aggregate, Messi has now lost five of his eight Champions League knockout games against the German giants. Muller personally has come out on top against the PSG superstar in all but one of their nine meetings for club and country, most memorably the 2014 World Cup final.
In contrast, Ronaldo got the better of Bayern in five of Real Madrid 's eight Champions League clashes with Bayern by scoring an incredible nine goals, all coming in the knockout stage and most of them being semi-final ties. After Muller and co advanced from Wednesday's last-16 tie and left Messi sulking off the Allianz Arena pitch, he reminded the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner that his magic doesn't have the same effect as eternal rival Ronaldo's.
