Missed chances by Robert Lewandowski on his return to Bayern Munich proved costly as his Barcelona side lost in Germany.

Outplayed in the first half, Bayern blew their Spanish opponents away after the break with goals from Lucas Hernandez and Leroy Sane. Hernandez headed in at the near post after 50 minutes, before Sane clipped home to seal the win shortly after.

Lewandowski spurned a number of clear openings in an entertaining match. The victory puts Bayern Munich in control of Group C with six points from two games.

Barcelona are level on three points with Inter Milan, who beat Viktoria Plzen 2-0 in the Czech Republic through goals from Edin Dzeko and Denzel Dumfries.

Arsenal’s Europa League match against PSV Eindhoven on Thursday has been postponed with police resources in London stretched in the wake of the Queen’s death last week.

UEFA confirmed on Monday that the tie would not now be played and that a new date for the match would be communicated in due course.

European football’s governing body said the postponement was due “to the severe limitations on police resources and organizational issues.

“These are related to the ongoing events surrounding the national mourning for Queen Elizabeth II.”

Chelsea’s home UEFA Champions League match against Red Bull Salzburg on Wednesday will go ahead as planned, while the midweek English Football League programme is unaffected.

EFL had earlier said its teams would return to action on Tuesday.

The league’s weekend programme was postponed as a mark of respect but the midweek matches scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday are set to go ahead.

Tributes are to be paid to the Queen at games around the country.

English Premier League clubside Wolverhampton Wanderers have snapped up former Chelsea striker Diego Costa to ease their striker crisis.

The former Spain international has signed a deal until the end of the season, having been a free agent.

Wolves had to appeal for a work permit after the 33-year-old did not automatically qualify and his initial application was rejected.

He told the club’s official site: “It’s a first-class club with very good players who know how to play football and having the chance to play in the Premier League again was the main thing.

Costa arrives with Wolves having lost new 15 million pounds signing Sasa Kalajdzic to a serious knee injury.

The striker suffered an anterior cruciate ligament tear on his debut, a 1-0 win over Southampton.

Raul Jimenez is also struggling for form and fitness, with Lage’s side scoring just three goals in their opening six Premier League games.

Costa has been available since January after leaving Atletico Mineiro in Brazil.

He won two Premier League titles with Chelsea and scored 58 goals in 120 games in three years at Stamford Bridge.

Real Sociedad’s Nigeria international forward Umar Sadiq will face a long spell on the sidelines after suffering a cruciate ligament injury.

The Super Eagles ace was forced off in the 38th minute of Sunday’s 2-1 league defeat at Getafe.

It was his third appearance with Sociedad since joining the Basque outfit in a €20 million move from Almeria on transfer deadline day to replace Alexander Isak who moved to Newcastle United.

Tests done on Monday showed he had torn his right ACL.

The LaLiga club confirmed Sadiq, 25, will undergo surgery in the coming days but did not reveal how long he will be out of action.

However, he could miss the rest of the season.

Sadiq, who was Sociedad’s top summer signing, made an immediate impact by scoring on his debut in a 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid on September 3.

He started for Sociedad in their historic first win over Manchester United at Old Trafford in their Europa League group game on September 8.
