Bayern Munich vs Man City LIVE: Result and reaction from Champions League quarter-final as City cruise through
Bayern Munich 1-1 Man City (1-4 agg): Erling Haaland missed a penalty before later scoring as Pep Guardiola’s men set up a semi-final against Real Madrid
Erling Haaland scored as Manchester City advanced to a Champions League semi-final rematch with Real Madrid after a 1-1 draw against Bayern Munich in the second leg of their quarter-final on Wednesday.
The Norwegian superstar missed a first-half penalty but atoned as City achieved smooth progress with a 4-1 win on aggregate by scoring the opening goal on a counter-attack in the 57th minute, just after Bayern missed a good chance at the other end.
Bayern’s lack of confidence after losing the first leg 3-0 in Manchester showed as they failed to take advantage of numerous chances. Joshua Kimmich scored the Bavarian powerhouses’ consolation from the penalty spot in the 83rd minute after City defender Manuel Akanji was penalised for handball but it was immaterial to the outcome.
Relive all the action as Bayern Munich miss out to Manchester City:

86 mins: Less than five minutes plus stoppage time to play. Aymeric Laporte fouls Choupo-Moting and gets Tuchel wound up again. The Bayern coach sprints over to give the officials another earful and he’s sent off!
It’s Tuchel’s second yellow card of the game and the Bayern boss is dismissed to the stands.
GOAL! Bayern Munich 1-1 Man City (1-4 agg) - Kimmich, 83'⚽️
83 mins: Joshua Kimmich steps up and smokes the spot kick right down the middle. Bayern have a goal, they need another three.
Penalty to Bayern Munich!

82 mins: VAR have called the referee over to the monitor. He looks at the replay in slow motion and points to the spot. Ridiculous decision but Bayern have the chance to equalise.

80 mins: Sadio Mane is asking for a handball against Manuel Akanji. The two players were toe-to-toe as Mane brought the ball to the byline. His attempted cross hits Akanji’s foot and bounces up and strikes the defender on the arm.
How can that be a penalty? VAR is looking at it.

75 mins: Disallowed goal! Kimmich threads the ball up to Coman who’s waiting in space on the right side of the box. He cuts inside and shoots forcing Ederson into a sharp save.
The rebound comes to substitute Mathys Tel who pokes it home only for the offside flag to get raised. Coman was too far forward in the build-up.

72 mins: There’s still no way into the box for Bayern. Kimmich attempts another cross which evades all the men in the middle and drops for Mane on the far side of the penalty area.
He tries to flick the ball back in and City nod it clear. Bayern seem to have missed a proper centre-forward tonight. Erling Haaland - City’s number nine - has been the difference.

69 mins: Musiala plays the ball through to Choupo-Moting who’s touch isn’t the best. The ball rolls behind his body meaning that the striker’s shot at goal is soft and comes straight into the waiting arms of Ederson.

66 mins: Nathan Ake pulls up with what looks like a hamstring injury. That could be a big blow for Manchester City as they continue to fight for three trophies this season.
Aymeric Laporte comes on to replace him.

63 mins: Joao Cancelo’s night is over, as is Leroy Sane’s. In their place come Alphonso Davies and Sadio Mane. It’s probably too late now for either player to make a difference in this tie.
Bayern need to score four goals in less than half an hour.
