🧨 Bayern into semis: Real KO 4-3! Two 🟥, two howlers! Kane, Mbappé 🔝 | OneFootball

Bayern reached the Champions League semi-finals after a crazy match against Real Madrid: 4-3 on the night, making it 6-4 on aggregate. Kompany’s side will face PSG in the semi-finals.

In the first half, Guler scored after 33 seconds following a huge mistake by Neuer, then Pavlovic equalised from a corner thanks to a howler by Lunin. Guler grabbed his brace from a free-kick (with Neuer again less than perfect), Kane responded with his 50th goal of the season, and then Mbappé scored late in the first half.

In the second half, the tempo slowed until the closing minutes, when Camavinga was sent off and Bayern ran away with it: goals from L. Diaz (via a deflection) and a final strike from Olise from outside the box.

💣 L. Diaz and Olise FINISH IT off at 4-3 (6-4 on aggregate)! RED card for Guler

90+5' - Real pushed forward at the end and Bayern killed the game: a counterattack finished by Olise with one of his trademark shots to the far post.

After the final whistle, Los Blancos protested over Camavinga’s earlier sending-off: referee Vincic then sent off Guler after the match had ended.

89' - Real lost their shape immediately after Camavinga’s red card and Luis Diaz took advantage: dribble on the edge of the box, shot deflected by Militao and the ball into the net for 3-3 (5-4 on aggregate).

🟥 Red card for Camavinga! The referee had forgotten

86' - Camavinga (who came on in the second half) committed a foul while already on a yellow, then protested and picked up the ball with his hands to stop Bayern from taking the free-kick. 

Referee Vincic did not realise he had already booked Camavinga and, after protests from the Bayern players, sent him off.

🧤 Neuer miracle save on Mbappé: worth 0.41 xGOT

55' - Alexander-Arnold delivered a perfect cross for Mbappé, who hit it first time. The effort was powerful, but Neuer made an instinctive save: a very difficult stop that partially made up for his first-half mistakes.

❗Mbappé makes it 2-3! 40th goal of the season, away RECORD

42' - Vinicius drove down the left, beat his man and then slipped Mbappé through with a well-timed run: the Frenchman scored in front of Neuer for 3-2 (4-4 on aggregate). It was his 40th goal of the season.

RANDOM STATS: Mbappé is the first player ever to score 10 away goals in a single European Cup/Champions League season.

There were protests at the start of the move over a Rudiger challenge on Olise before the Blancos counterattack. According to Gianpaolo Calvarese on Prime Video, the challenge was not punishable.

🤯 Kane makes it 2-2! 50th goal of the season

38' - After yet another attacking move, Bayern made it 2-2: Upamecano threaded the assist through to Kane while Real’s defence failed to move properly, and the striker controlled and scored at the far post. It was his 50th goal of the season.

RANDOM STATS: Harry Kane has scored (3) or assisted (2) in each of his last 5 Champions League matches against Real Madrid. It is the longest such streak ever recorded by a player against Real in Champions League history.

🧨 Guler BRACE from a free-kick: 2-1! Neuer 😬

30' - Brahim Diaz won a dubious free-kick after contact from Laimer, and Arda Guler took it, hitting it hard about a metre inside the post. The strike was excellent but Neuer was not perfect: the ball went in, it was 2-1 and a brace for the Turkish midfielder.

RANDOM STATS: Arda Guler, at 21 years and 49 days old, became the youngest player to score a direct free-kick in a Champions League knockout match, surpassing Del Piero.

On the contact that led to the free-kick, Gianpaolo Calvarese said on Prime Video: "There doesn’t seem to be any low contact between Brahim and Laimer, for me it’s not a foul."

💣 Pavlovic makes it 1-1! What is Lunin doing on the corner? 😱

6' - Bayern Munich equalised from a corner: Kimmich took it, Pavlovic got into position and scored close to the goal line while Lunin got his positioning completely wrong. The goalkeeper practically threw himself into his own net.

🤯 1-0 Real after 35 seconds! Neuer MADNESS on Guler

1' - After 35 seconds, Neuer gifted the ball to Arda Guler in the attacking third: a huge mistake that allowed the Turkish player to score into an empty net despite being about 30 metres out.

RANDOM STATS: it was Real Madrid’s fastest-ever goal in Champions League history, according to Opta.

🙂?↔️ Arbeloa is calm: "Mendy on Olise? Best left-back in the world"

Speaking to UEFA before the match, Arbeloa appeared confident: "Why do I seem so calm? I have great players, we are Real Madrid."

He then commented on Mendy’s presence: "He is the best defensive left-back in the world. I trust him even though he has just returned from injury, he knows Olise."
