The match saw seven goals and two red cards, with Bayern scoring twice late in the game. Luis Diaz's 89th-minute goal sealed the win for Bayern after Eduardo Camavinga's red card, and Michael Olise added a late goal to secure the victory. The first half was marked by five goals, with Madrid taking the lead three times, only to be matched by Bayern each time. The win sets up a semi-final match against Paris Saint-Germain, the current holders of the Champions League title. Bayern Munich's starting lineup included Neuer, Laimer, Upamecano, Tah, Stanisic, Kimmich, Pavlovic, Olise, Gnabry, Diaz, and Kane, with Davies and Musiala coming on as substitutes. Real Madrid's lineup featured Lunin, Alexander-Arnold, Militao, Rudiger, Mendy, Valverde, Bellingham, Guler, Diaz, Vinicius Jr, and Mbappe, with Camavinga, Mastantuono, and Pitarch entering the game as substitutes. Michael Olise was named the player of the match. The game was marked by goalkeeping mistakes, including a sloppy pass by Manuel Neuer that led to Arda Guler's early goal. Andriy Lunin allowed Aleksandar Pavlovic to score, and Neuer failed to stop Guler's free-kick. Harry Kane restored Bayern's aggregate lead, only to be matched by Kylian Mbappe's goal. The second half saw a more patient Bayern, with Olise and Mbappe both coming close to scoring. However, it was Camavinga's second yellow card that ultimately cost Madrid, with Diaz scoring soon after to seal the win. Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa expressed his disappointment and anger at the red card, calling it 'unfair.' Arda Guler was also sent off after the final whistle, as the visitors struggled to contain their emotions. Harry Kane became the first English player to score 50 goals for a club in Europe's major leagues in 95 years, and he praised his teammates for their hard work and support. Kane also reflected on the match, calling it 'tough' but praising his team's ability to stay patient and capitalize on their chances.
