Five goals were scored in a blistering, breathless first half of a quarter-final second-leg cracker, before the game switched to a tactical battle after the break with both sides slowing down the tempo. It looked like extra time would be needed to settle the outcome, but Real Madrid substitute Eduardo Camavinga was shown a second yellow card for time-wasting four minutes from time following a foul by the French midfielder on Harry Kane. With a minute left, Luis Diaz delivered a decisive blow with his 24th goal of the season. The former Liverpool forward played a one-two with Jamal Musiala before sending a curling strike into the top corner via a slight deflection. After losing the first leg 2-1, Real led three times at the Allianz Arena with Arda Guler scoring twice, but Kane netted his 50th goal of the campaign as Bayern responded each time. They ensured there was to be no comeback from the 15-time European champions when Michael Olise curled in a fourth in added time to seal a memorable 4-3 win on the night and 6-4 success on aggregate. This video can not be played How Bayern's wingers took the game to Real Madrid The knockout stages often throws up thrilling matches and with the quality of players within the Bayern and Real ranks it was always likely this last-eight encounter would deliver. That was certainly the case in a pulsating opening period, with Real having clearly arrived in Munich determined to keep alive their hopes of winning the competition for a 16th time. After their defeat in Madrid, it took Real just 35 seconds to level matters on aggregate when veteran Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer hit a poor clearance straight to Guler, who struck a superb first-time effort from 25 yards into the empty net. But the German champions levelled to restore their advantage just five minutes later when Aleksandar Pavlovic headed Joshua Kimmich's corner in from practically on the goalline as visiting keeper Andriy Lunin was left stranded. The fast-paced tempo continued as a superbly-timed challenge by Dayot Upamecano denied Vinicius Jr, but Real made it 2-1 in the 29th minute when Guler fired in lovely free-kick that was pushed into the net by the scrambling Neuer. The Turkish international had not scored in the Champions League until tonight. Kane and Mbappe then made their inevitable contributions before half-time. The England captain was left unmarked to curl home a composed finish to make it 2-2 in the 38th minute, before Frenchman Mbappe drove in Vinicius Jr's pass four minutes later - his 15th goal in 11 Champions League games - to level the tie on aggregate again. The second half struggled to match the chaos and quality of the first, but there was drama in the closing minutes as Bayern overcame Real's spirited effort. Camavinga, who only came on in the 62nd minute, was dismissed for a second booking for walking off with the ball and not allowing the hosts to take the free-kick after his foul on Kane. Real were rattled and their 10 men couldn't hold on as the classy late goals from Diaz and Olise kept alive Bayern's hopes of a Treble this season. The Spanish side were left aggrieved after the final whistle and vented their fury with Guler, who had already been substituted, shown a red card on the sidelines for confronting referee Slavko Vincic. It has been six years since Bayern Munich last won the Champions League but this victory, coupled with their superb domestic form this season, will give them belief they can win the competition for a seventh time in their storied history. The Champions League is one of three trophies they are pursuing and they could seal the first as soon as this weekend when they take on Stuttgart in the Bundesliga, holding a 12-point lead at the top with five games left. A German Cup semi-final tie with Bayer Leverkusen follows, before travelling to PSG at the end of April in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final. The French side, who overcame Liverpool in the last eight, will be keen to defend their title, but Vincent Kompany's men are going to take some stopping. Bayern have lost just once in all competitions since November and in Kane they have the most in-form forward in Europe with 50 club goals in 42 appearances.

Only once before have they won both legs of a knockout stage tie against them in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League, doing so in the 2000-01 semi-finals (1-0 away, 2-1 at home). Since the start of the 2013-14 season, Real Madrid (3) have the joint-most away wins against Bayern Munich across all competitions, despite only playing there four times in this period (also 3 wins in 17 games for Borussia Dortmund & 3 wins in 13 games for Borussia Mönchengladbach). Real Madrid are unbeaten in their last four away games against Bayern Munich (W3 D1). In the Bundesliga era (since 1963-64), only two sides have managed to go five in a row without losing away to Bayern: Werder Bremen (5 from 1989-1992 and 2007-2010) and 1. FC Köln (5 from 2003-2010). Bayern Munich’s victory at the Bernabéu was 23rd time they won away from home in the first leg of a two-legged knockout stage tie in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League – the Germans have only been eliminated in one of the previous 22, suffering an away goals defeat to Internazionale in the 2010-11 round of 16 (won 1-0 away, lost 3-2 at home). Real Madrid have the most semi-final appearances in European Cup/UEFA Champions League history (33). If they are eliminated here, however, they will have failed to reach the semi-finals as many times in the last two seasons (2) as they did in the previous 14 editions combined, between 2010-11 and 2023-24 (2). Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane has scored in his last four UEFA Champions League games (6 goals), and could equal the longest scoring streak by an English player in the competition (5 by Steven Gerrard in 2007-08). Kane could also become the first player to score or assist in five consecutive UEFA Champions League appearances against Real Madrid (2 goals, 2 assists in his last 4). Nine of Kylian Mbappé’s 14 goals in the UEFA Champions League this season have been scored away from home. Should he find the net in this game, the Real Madrid forward would be the first player ever to score 10+ away goals in a single European Cup/Champions League edition. Vinícius Júnior made 17 runs in behind the opposition defensive line in last week’s first leg; the most by a player against Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League this season. Indeed, the Real Madrid winger has made the most runs in behind in this edition overall (150), as well as in the knockout stages (76). The two players who have made the most defensive line-breaking passes in the UEFA Champions League this season are Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich (17) and Real Madrid’s Arda Güler (16). Eight of Kimmich’s 17 have been for Michael Olise; the most from one player to a teammate in this edition. Michael Olise has assisted six goals in the UEFA Champions League this season; the joint-most by a Bayern Munich player in a single edition (also Leroy Sané in 2021-22 and Hasan Salihamidzic in 2001-02).
