Real Madrid have not reached the semi-finals of the last eight Champions League campaigns by coincidence. The winners of the last two European Cups showed solidity, focus and grit at the Allianz Arena to win 1-2 against Bayern Munich to take an advantage in the tie. Goals from Marcelo and Asensio cancelled out a beautiful goal from Kimmich to get a win that Real Madrid will need to build on at the Santiago Bernabéu next Tuesday as they look to get to the final.
Real Madrid now have an edge over Bayern Munich , the Bundesliga champions suffered a double setback in the first half with injuries to Arjen Robben and defender Jerome Boateng.
