In a thrilling Champions League encounter, Real Madrid produced a stunning comeback to defeat Bayern Munich 2-1, securing a 4-3 aggregate victory. Former Stoke City striker Joselu emerged as the hero, scoring a dramatic late double to propel Real Madrid into the final.

Bayern Munich had taken the lead through Alphonso Davies’ second-half stunner, and it seemed they were heading to the Wembley final. However, in the 88th minute, Manuel Neuer’s shocking spill allowed substitute Joselu to equalize for Real Madrid. The never-say-die mentality of the Spanish side prevailed, and they secured their place in the final against Borussia Dortmund on June 1.

Despite Bayern’s late efforts, controversy arose when Matthijs De Ligt’s apparent equalizer was disallowed due to an offside call. Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel expressed frustration with the decision, labeling it a “disaster.”

The vintage Real Madrid comeback not only dashed Bayern’s hopes but also left England captain Harry Kane trophyless in his first season with the German club. The thrilling match showcased the resilience and determination of both teams, with Real Madrid ultimately emerging victorious. The Wembley final promises to be an exciting clash between two European giants.
