| Last updated
17-year-old sensation Jamal Musiala has scored his first Champions League goal this evening, doubling Bayern Munich's lead vs Lazio.
Musiala has burst onto the scene in this campaign and has been trusted with a start in this evening's last 16 tie.
Robert Lewandowski put the away side in front inside nine minutes, but Musiala stepped up 15 minutes later.
He received the ball from Leon Goretzka before thumping a low drive into the bottom corner and past Pepe Reina.
What a finish from 17-year-old Jamal Musiala for Bayern! :dart:

That's a sight we'll all be getting used to in the future.
Fans have reacted to Musiala's performance so far and they think it could be the makings of yet another star boy.
England losing out on Musiala is really going to hurt in a few years' time.#NXGN https://t.co/YQF7GsvWNa

I know he's only 17 but he's doing this at the top level. Could be a shout to get in England's euro squad. If he chooses us over Germany of course https://t.co/7k5E2FWN4B

Musiala is eligible to play for England but is reportedly set to turn them down and play for Germany.
He is German-born but spent a lot of his formative years in England, even turning out for their U21s side.
This season has seen Musiala make 16 appearances in the Bundesliga as well as three in the Champions League.
Bayern are currently 3-0 up after a goal from Leroy Sane.
