Pulsating draw at Allianz Arena, as Real Madrid, Bayern draw 2-2 to set up exciting second leg semis at Bernabeu

Vinicius Junior scored twice to level the match after Leroy Sane and Harry Kane found the net, setting the stage for an evenly balanced encounter between Bayern and Real Madrid.

This happened in their UEFA Champions League semifinals first leg clash at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday.

Just as Bayern took the lead with a goal in the 57th minute, Madrid was granted a penalty, which Vinicius calmly converted into the top right corner, sending the goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer, the other way.

In the first half, against the run of play, the Brazilian opened the scoring by collecting Toni Kroos’ defense-splitting pass.

He then calmly slotted the ball past Manuel Neuer.

Bayern, however, completely turned the game around after the break.

The team scored two second-half goals within just four minutes.

Leroy Sane smashed the ball home past Andriy Lunin.

Harry Kane then converted from the spot after Lucas Vazquez hauled down Jamal Musiala inside the box.

Kim Min-Jae’s last-minute foul on Rodrygo in the box enabled Vinicius to score his second goal of the night.

This secured a late draw for Carlo Ancelotti’s team, setting the stage for an exciting second leg at the Bernabeu on May 8, 2024.
