Atletico Madrid go through to their third Champions League final on away goals after a truly rivetting semi-final. Pep Guardiola’s Bayern Munich lose their third consecutive Champions League semi-final against Spanish opposition. He’ll leave the club without having won the trophy, which has to be considered a failure.
Xabi Alonso opened the scoring for Bayern with a deflected free-kick, only to see his team-mate Thomas Muller miss with a penalty a couple of minutes later. In the second half, Antoine Griezmann wrestled control of the tie back in Atletico’s favour, leaving Bayern Neuer needing two goals to win it. Robert Lewandowski got one of them before Fernando Torres missed from the spot, to leave Bayern over five minutes in which to grab the goal they needed. Their attempt was valiant, but they came up short. Atletico Madrd are through to the final in the San Siro on 28 May.
