Kick-off – Bayern v Real Madrid
1. Here we go! It’s Bayern that get the first leg of the first Champions League semi-final underway…
…and within 42 seconds Leroy Sane is through on the goal!
A delicate touch by Harry Kane plays the German in, and his shot across goal is kept out by the foot of Andriy Lunin.
Here come the two teams!
The Allianz Arena is awash with red and white with a huge tifo of the late, great Franz Beckenbauer adorning one end of the stadium.
Unsurprisingly, emotions are running high, and there is already a sense that we’re in for a special, special night.
The players of both teams make their way down the stairs, out of the tunnel, and on to the pitch as the atmosphere somehow manages to ramp up another notch.
The Champions League anthem plays, Carlo Ancelotti and Thomas Tuchel share an embrace, and we are all set to go.
It’s Bayern Munich against Real Madrid, and kick-off is next.
