BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich may trail Bayer Leverkusen by 10 points with 10 games left in the Bundesliga this season but they are not yet ready to throw in the towel, having been boosted by their midweek Champions League success.

The Bavarians, whose coach Thomas Tuchel will leave at the end of the season following their bad run recently, moved into the Champions League last eight with a dominant 3-0 win over Lazio on Tuesday.
