Holding midfielder Mark van Bommel was very satisfied with his side's progress and made it clear that Bayern are eager to kept away from European champions Barcelona in the next round.
"It was a hard game in curious weather. There was a lot of wind which troubled both teams. It went in our favour in the second half but helped Fiorentina’s goal too," said Van Bommel to uefa.com.
"They were very quick to take advantage and when the keeper failed to hold the ball, they scored. We conceded another but knew that if we got one goal we could get extra-time and fortunately we scored twice.
"Now we just have to get lucky as well with the draw. There are a lot of outside things that decide whether you go through or not, like playing the first game home or away. I just don't want to play against Barcelona."
