The last four sprang into action this evening with two European heavyweights going head-to-head in Munich. And the match didn’t disappoint with Bayern and Real Madrid playing out a pulsating 2-2 draw, to set up a winner takes all clash in the second leg next week. Madrid struck first with Vinicius Junior putting the 14-time champions in front against the run of play, but Bayern responded in style with two second half goals from Sane and Kane putting the Germans in control. However, a late Vinicius penalty, won by Rodrygo, salvaged a draw for the Spaniards to set up a tantalising second leg tie in Madrid. We hear from Jamal Musiala, Harry Kane and Antonio Rudiger. Plus we look ahead to tomorrow night’s semi-final first leg between Borussia Dortmund and Paris St Germain.

Real Madrid will play Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League final!



Los Blancos booked their spot in the London showpiece with a late comeback victory over Bayern. After Alphonso Davies gave the German side the lead in the tie, two Joselu strikes in the 88th and 91st minute triggered joyous scenes in the Bernabeu.



We take you inside the celebrations and hear from Madrid star Jude Bellingham!

Madrid book final spot with remarkable comeback against Bayern

Borussia Dortmund upset the odds to beat Paris Saint Germain in both semi-final legs and reach the 2024 Champions League Final. The Germans took a slender 1-0 first leg lead to the French capital, and they replicated that scoreline to see off the 2020 Finalists 1-0 on the night and 2-0 on aggregate. In a superb defensive performance, it was centre back and UEFA Player of the Match Mats Hummels who scored the all-important goal for Dortmund on the night, and it was a lead they managed to hold onto until the end despite Paris hitting the woodwork four times during the match.



We hear from Paris manager Luis Enrique and midfielder Vitinha as well as Marcel Sabitzer, Mats Hummels and manager Edin Terzic from the victorious Dortmund camp as the Germans reached their third Champions League Final and their second at Wembley. We also look ahead to Wednesday’s semi-final second leg between Real Madrid and Bayern, and hear from Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham with the tie fascinatingly poised at 2-2 after the first leg in Germany.

Dortmund stun Paris to reach Champions League Final

The second night of semi-final action in this year’s UEFA Champions League continued where the first left off, with a pulsating encounter between Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain at the BVB Stadion.



In a match full of chances for both teams, including Paris hitting both posts in a matter of seconds with shots from Mbappe and Hakimi, Niclas Fullkrug’s sublime first half strike was the difference between the sides as Dortmund secured a slender 1-0 lead in the tie.



Hear how the match unfolded, and from the UEFA Player of the Match Mats Hummels.

On a night where it was all to play for across Europe, Madrid and Bayern secured their spots in the final four of the UEFA Champions League.



Nothing could separate Manchester City and Real Madrid after 120 minutes of football, with the match finishing 1-1, 4-4 on aggregate. Andriy Lunin was then the hero in the penalty shoot-out, saving two spot kicks as Los Blancos progressed.



In Germany, a solitary Joshua Kimmich goal was enough to secure a 1-0 win for Bayern on the night against Arsenal, and a 3-2 victory overall in the tie. It’s now the 13th time Bayern have reached the Champions League semi-finals.



We hear from all the key players, including Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti, Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Kane from a jubilant Bayern camp and disappointed Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta.
