Sky Sports Champions League •

Bayern Munich dramatically knocked out Real Madrid 4-3 on the night, winning 6-4 on aggregate in a thrilling Champions League quarter-final. Eduardo Camavinga's red card proved costly as Madrid took the lead three times only for Bayern to respond each time in front of their home fans. Luis Diaz's 89th-minute goal sealed the victory for Bayern.

Manuel Neuer's early mistake set the tone when his sloppy pass allowed Arda Guler to score after just 35 seconds. The first half featured five goals with multiple goalkeeping errors, including Andriy Lunin allowing Aleksandar Pavlovic to nod in from near the line. Harry Kane restored Bayern's aggregate lead before the break and later became the first English player to score 50 club goals in Europe's major leagues in 95 years.

Real Madrid coach Alvaro Arbeloa slammed the red card decision as "unbelievable," expressing anger and disappointment at the dismissal. For Bayern manager Vincent Kompany, the victory keeps treble ambitions alive as they face holders Paris Saint-German in the semi-finals. The 15-time European champions exit another tournament without silverware.
