Van Gaal hails team effort

Olic's superb hat-trick helps Bayern overwhelm shell-shocked Lyon

LYON, France - Bayern Munich coach Louis van Gaal saluted a masterful team effort after his side's convincing 3-0 victory over Lyon swept it into the Champions League final on Tuesday.

A hat-trick from Ivica Olic secured a 4-0 aggregate win, which was the biggest winning margin in a Champions League semifinal since Juventus beat van Gaal's Ajax 6-2 in the 1996-97 competition.
