Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid LIVE: Champions League result and reaction after entertaining draw in Munich
Bayern Munich 2-2 Real Madrid: Vinicius Jr’s brace cancelled out goals from Leroy Sane and Harry Kane to leave the tie finely poised.
A brace from Vinicius Junior earned Real Madrid a 2-2 away draw against Bayern Munich to leave the Champions League semi-final tie finely poised after the first leg.
The Brazilian opened the scoring against the run of play in the first half, collecting Toni Kroos’ defence-splitting pass before cooly slotting past Manuel Neuer.
Bayern, though, turned the game on its head after the break with two second-half goals in the space of four minutes. Leroy Sane smashed home past Andriy Lunin before Harry Kane converted from the spot after Lucas Vazquez hauled down Jamal Musiala inside the box.
But Kim Min-Jae’s late foul on Rodrygo inside the area allowed Vinicius to double his tally for the night from the spot and rescue a late draw for Carlo Ancelotti’s side ahead of the second leg at the Bernabeu.
