Real pushes for an equalizer in vain
After the break, a deflected shot from Alphonso Davies flew just over the Real goal (47th). A little later, Madrid were just centimeters away from celebrating their goal, and Rodrygo deflected a Vinicius Stangl pass just past the far corner (55′). The atmosphere in the stadium did justice to the importance of the game, and both teams tried to set a tone. In the 59th minute, Neuer was there for a Rodrygo free kick, and a minute later for a Vinicius shot. The double goalscorer in the first leg repeatedly played with Bayern right-back Kimmich on the left wing. But it was Davies, who had recently been out of form, who turned the game on its head. After a long Kane pass, the 23-year-old winger moved into the penalty area and finished unstoppable. The Madrilenians pushed for the equalizer, a supposed goal was disallowed by referee Szymon Marciniak, according to the video images, because of a clear push by Nacho against Kimmich.
Joselu als Halbfinal-Held
The hosts, who were superior in terms of play, were still able to celebrate after the previously outstanding Neuer made a mistake and allowed Joselu to equalize after a Vinicius shot. In the 91st minute, the 34-year-old pushed a Rüdiger cross over the line and made himself a semi-final hero. After the final whistle, Bayern were annoyed by a premature offside whistle in a tight situation near the penalty area (104th), moments later De Ligt put the ball in the Real goal. “To blow off a scene like that is unbelievable,” said Müller.
