Ivica Olic scored a hat-trick at Lyon Tuesday to give Bayern Munich an easy 3-0 victory and a place in the UEFA Champions League final. The Bavarians giants went to France with a one-goal advantage as they won the first leg 1-0 at Allianz Arena last week. Bayern strolled to the final, which takes place in Madrid on May 22nd, on a 4-0 aggregate win. Olic broke the deadlock four minutes from the half-hour mark after rounding his marker in the area and releasing a low shot that wrong-footed the keeper Lyon skipper Cris was sent off one minute from the hour mark. He was booked for a violent challenge on Olic but received his marching orders after mocking the referee by clapping. Bayern capitalized on the hosts' numerical disadvantage and took a stranglehold on the game. In-form marksman Olic doubled Bayern's lead on 67 minutes after latching onto a Hamit Altıntop deft pass, to go one-on-one with the keeper and dink home.
The Croatian ace put the icing on the cake 12 minutes from time after heading Philipp Lahm's cross into the net. In the final, Louis van Gaal's men will take on the winners from Barcelona and Inter Milan, who clash with each other on Wednesday at Nou Camp. Inter beat the Catalans 3-1 in the first leg.
