On Tuesday evening, the UEFA Champions League semi-final second-leg matches were played.
In the "Allianz" Stadium in Munich, Bayern Munich were unexpectedly crushed. The footballers of Real Madrid humiliated the Bavarians with a score of 0-4 and advanced to the final of the tournament after a penalty shootout.
Spain's vice-champions team demonstrated a fantastic game and eliminated the winners of this tournament with a combined score of 5-0. In the first match, Real Madrid struggled at home, but they dominated their opponents away.
The match started with non-threatening attacks from both clubs, although the hosts seemed to be under more pressure, but they couldn't get close to Iker Casillas' goal.
The first dangerous opportunity was created in the 9th minute. Bayern's goalkeeper Manuel Neuer almost conceded a goal after poorly clearing the ball with his head, but Gareth Bale failed to send the ball accurately into the empty goal.
However, the first goal from the Real Madrid players didn't take long. After an excellent corner kick from Luka Modrić, defender Sergio Ramos headed the ball into the goal.
The quick away goal from the Madrid visitors caused confusion for the home team on the field, and just four minutes later, after a career-breaking match, S. Ramos once again defeated M. Neuer and sent Bayern into complete disarray.
Later, Pep Guardiola's proteges tried to take control of the game into their hands, but in the 34th minute, the home team was crushed.
Gareth Bale sprinted through the center of the field and approached the penalty area to make a pass to Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored his 15th goal in this Champions League season, a record of all time.
In the second half, Carlo Ancelotti's team relaxed and spent most of the game in defense. In the 57th minute, a ball was sent near the goal by Arjen Robben, but it didn't cause any trouble for Iker Casillas.
Bayern continued to control the ball, but it didn't bring them any benefit, and at the end of the match, the record-holder C. Ronaldo scored the final point.
A foul was committed near the penalty area, and the 29-year-old Portuguese C. Ronaldo stepped up to take the shot, which was accurate and overwhelming. Bayern experienced a home defeat for the first time in the club's history with a score of 0-4.
The royal club reached the final after a 12-year break. They will have to compete with the winners of the London "Chelsea" / Madrid "Atletico" pairing.
It is worth mentioning that the Champions League final will take place on May 24 at the "Estadio da Luz" Stadium in Lisbon.
