Il Bayern Monaco extinguishes the dream ofArsenal to go back in semifinals in the Champions League after 15 years and to get a ticket to the 2025 Club World Cup. After a 2-2 draw in the first leg, the Bavarians won 1-0 in the return leg in Munich and returned to the top four in Europe after 4 years. A deserved success against a team that appeared subpar compared to its standards and disappointed especially once it went behind, failing to find a way to worry its rivals. With Germany, which celebrates having brought two representatives to the semi-final of the Champions League, Austria also toasts, knowing from Wednesday evening that Salzburg will go to the 2025 Club World Cup in place of Arsenal.
