Bayern Munich Edge Real Madrid 4-3 To Reach Champions League Semi-Finals

A late rally sets up a semi-final with holders Paris Saint‑Germain, with Vincent Kompany banned for the first leg.

Overview

  • Bayern, which won Wednesday's second leg 4-3 in Munich after a 2-1 first‑leg win in Madrid, advanced to face Paris Saint‑Germain on April 28 and May 6.
  • Manuel Neuer's misplaced pass after 36 seconds let Arda Güler score from long range, and Real led three times before Bayern drew level through Aleksandar Pavlović and Harry Kane.
  • Kylian Mbappé put Real 3-2 up before the break, then Eduardo Camavinga received a second yellow card in the 86th minute for delaying a restart, leaving Madrid with ten men.
  • Luis Díaz equalised in the 89th minute and Michael Olise hit the winner in the 90+4th minute to settle the tie at the death.
  • Referee Slavko Vincic also sent off Güler after the final whistle, and Kompany's earlier yellow card means he will miss the first leg of the semi-final.
