– I think it is a good result. It gives us hope and confidence before the return. It’s completely open,” said Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, who led Bayern to the Bundesliga title in 2017, according to the AP.
The general meeting lived up to expectations. Vinicius Junior was the first to get on the scoresheet after 24 minutes of play when he was well played by Toni Kroos and rolled the ball into a free position.
But at the beginning of the second half, Bayern Munich turned the game around after a few real dream minutes.
First, Leroy Sané equalized with a clinical finish in the 53rd minute.

Then Jamal Musiala was brought down in the penalty area and Harry Kane was the safety himself from the penalty spot when he coolly brought down away keeper Andriy Lunin the wrong way to make it 2-1 – just four minutes later.
But the home team’s joy lasted just over half an hour. After Kim Min Jae tackled Rodrygo, Real received a penalty.
Then Vinicius Junior was no worse than Kane but equalized to 2-2 and set his second of the evening. It was also the final result in the big meeting and it is thus wide open for the return in Madrid in a week.
