Real Madrid had a crazy comeback at the Bernabeu to win 2-1 against Bayern Munich in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

Joselu, a player brought on from the bench, shined when scoring both goals to help the White Vultures win all the joy.

This result helped Real Madrid win 4-3 overall against Bayern Munich after two semi-final matches, to go straight to Wembley to attend the final.

This is also the 18th time in the history of the Royal Spanish team to participate in the final match of Europe’s most prestigious club-level tournament.

Real Madrid is now facing the opportunity to extend its record on this playground after winning 14 previous titles.

The next opponent of Coach Carlo Ancelotti and his team is Borussia Dortmund, the team that overcame Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-finals.

This season’s Champions League final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund at Wembley Stadium will take place at 2 a.m. June 2 (Vietnam time).

This match also has a lot of fate as the two teams have faced each other many times in this arena in the past.

Returning to the “big battle” at the Bernabeu, both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich did not hide their determination to win when they actively played double-teams to find an early goal right after the opening whistle.

However, Real Madrid was the team that created clearer situations than Bayern Munich in the first 45 minutes.

Vinicius Junior damaged Bayern Munich’s goal with a shot that hit the post in the 13th minute. Immediately afterwards, Rodrygo rushed in to kick the ball very quickly but could not beat goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.

Neuer was also the most prominent name in the Gray Tigers’ squad in the first half, as he continued to excellently block Ferland Mendy’s shot in the 40th minute.

In the first half, Bayern did not create many opportunities but also startled Real Madrid after Harry Kane’s volley.

In the second half, both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich continued to play double attacks with “tit for tat” situations created towards each other’s goal.

Real Madrid had many more notable plays, but Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior could not make it difficult for goalkeeper Manuel Neuer to play so well.

Attacking and having good opportunities without scoring, Real Madrid had to receive “bitter consequences” after Bayern Munich organized a quick counterattack.

In the 68th minute, Kane had a convenient pass for Alphonso Davies to neatly control the ball, turn around to eliminate Antonio Rudiger and then made a classy shot to beat goalkeeper Lunin, scoring the opening goal 1-0 for Bayern.

This result gives Bayern Munich a huge advantage as they temporarily lead Real Madrid 3-2 after two matches.

Suddenly having to concede a goal, Coach Carlo Ancelotti continuously made adjustments in personnel and that has been effective for the White Vultures.

Joselu, the player introduced into the field in the 81st minute, shone to become a hero as he continuously caused the Bernabeu stadium to explode.

In the 88th minute, Joselu stepped in to score a rebound from close range after Neuer missed the ball from Vinicius’ shot, to score a 1-1 equalizer for the home team.

Three minutes later, Antonio Rudiger received the ball from Nacho and made a perfect cross for Joselu to score to increase the score to 2-1 to everyone’s surprise.

VAR stepped in after this sensitive ball but could not stop Joselu from completing his double within just a few minutes as no Real player fell into an offside position in this situation.

The extra time that followed was up to 13 minutes, but Bayern Munich was unable to score a goal, thereby accepting to leave the field with a 1-2 defeat and a final loss of 3-4 after two matches in the semi-finals.

This result caused Bayern Munich to experience a blank season after many years, while Real Madrid is getting closer to winning the 15th Champions League championship in history.
