“Why is that pole there?!”, you see Vínicius Júnior thinking in frustration. Bayern just got away with that very well. In any case, Real makes a more confident impression than last week, when it was mainly Bayern’s turn.

13′ Post! Even the camera couldn’t follow this quick throw-in from Real. This smart action allows Vínicius Júnior to take a shot from close range, but the post prevents the Madrid team from scoring. With a nice save, Neuer prevents a goal from the rebound.

Lo and behold, there are already the first match images. De Ligt got away well, Rodrygo was only a toe length short of scoring the opening goal.

7 ‘Well, De Ligt can breathe a sigh of relief! The defender sees in front of his nose that Rodrygo is just short of sliding in a low cross. Real’s first dangerous moment.

5′ Real Madrid have their turn in the first few minutes, but it has not yet become more dangerous than a corner kick.

Wednesday May 8 at 9:01 PM

1′ Kick-off! The ball is rolling in Madrid! The previous match ended 2-2, who will be the second finalist next to Borussia Dortmund?

The players are ready in the catacombs, just a few more minutes and we can go!

While Vínicius Júnior dribbles his legs loose, we dive into some nice statistics. It is the 27th meeting between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. This makes Real Madrid-Bayern the most common poster in a European context. Real won twelve of the meetings, Bayern won eleven and the match ended in a draw four times.

Harry Kane is always looking for goals, but maybe a little extra tonight. If the striker scores his thirtieth Champions League goal, he will equal Wayne Rooney as the most scoring English player in this competition.

Wednesday May 8 at 8:36 PM

The question is how fit the Real players will be at the start. The Madrilenians secured the 36th national title in club history on Saturday, but we did not see images like those at PSV at Real. The players held back from a modest party in the dressing room at Bayern because of the crack.

Wednesday May 8 at 8:30 PM

The last Bayern fans are on their way to the stadium in Madrid. The atmosphere is good!

Wednesday May 8 at 8:21 PM

It will undoubtedly be a treat tonight in Estadio Santiago Bernabéu. The previous match ended 2-2, so both teams have to work hard. We can’t wait!

Wednesday May 8 at 8:19 PM

Nice milestone for Toni Kroos. The 34-year-old German will play his 150th (!) Champions League match tonight. Kroos is only the seventh player to reach this milestone and also only the second German, next to his former teammate Thomas Müller.

Wednesday May 8 at 8:15 PM

Setups! Matthijs de Ligt has made it to the race against the clock! The Dutch international had to miss the first match due to a knee injury, but will be in the starting line-up tonight.

Line-up Bayern Munich: Neuer; Kimmich, De Ligt, Dier, Mazraoui; Laimer, Pavlovic; Sane, Musiala, Gnabry; Kane
Real Madrid line-up: Lunin; Carvajal, Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouameni, Bellingham, Kroos; Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior

Last week the match between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid ended in a 2-2 draw. The Madrid people in particular would have been happy with that. Bayern seemed to be heading for a victory, but thanks to a late goal from Vinícius Júnior, Real drew level.
