Bayern Munich vs Man City LIVE: Result and reaction from Champions League quarter-final as City cruise through

Another of this season’s Champions League quarter-final results that was ultimately predictable, but only after one shock. Erling Haaland missed a penalty. He then went and showed why that is so surprising by going and scoring the goal that made absolutely sure of Manchester City’s passage to a third consecutive semi-final. Pep Guardiola has another grand occasion with Real Madrid, a third in four seasons.

That will likely be much closer than this 4-1 aggregate win over Bayern Munich, and perhaps represents the biggest obstacle remaining to a potential treble for the Abu Dhabi project. It might even be “the true final”.

The truth of this tie was maybe a touch more complicated than the scoreline indicated. It was odd in that there were so many passages in this 1-1 when Bayern looked like they could match City but - as in the first leg - it was always like they were just hanging on and Guardiola’s side could raise it.

That happened again, and the scorer of the decisive goal was even more pointed than usual.

Manchester City made it through to the Champions League semi-final on Wednesday after a 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich sealed a 4-1 aggregate triumph.

Here, the PA news agency looks at five other memorable European evenings for the club:

Bayern Munich had 19 attempts with seven on target during this match but they couldn’t score. They needed a penalty in order to finally beat Ederson and it was a dubious penalty at best.

It won’t be a surprise if the Bundesliga champions go all in for a main striker this summer.

Manchester City are only the third English team to qualify for the Uefa Champions League semi-finals in three consecutive seasons, along with Chelsea and Manchester United (both 2006/07 to 2008/09).

Kevin De Bruyne has assisted 23 goals in all competitions this season, now his most in a single campaign for Man City (overtakes 22 in 2019/20), and five more than any player for clubs in Europe’s big-five leagues in 2022/23 (Lionel Messi 18).

90+5 mins: A draw on the night is enough to send Manchester City into the Champions League semi-finals. The damage was done at the Etihad in the first leg when Pep Guardiola’s men ran out 3-0 winners.

Erling Haaland and Joshua Kimmich netted the respective goals and Bayern maintained their scoring streak at the Allianz Arena. City were just too good defensively and they’ve knocked out the Bundesliga champions.

90+2 mins: Ederson play acts a bit of cramp and delays another restart. He needs to be careful as the Man City goalkeeper has already been booked.

Akanji is down now with an injury too.

90 mins: Five minutes of added time to play before this tie is done. Manchester City are managing the game now. Trying to hold onto possession and keep the ball in Bayern’s half.

The Bayern players seem deflated now. Three goals in five minutes is near impossible.

88 mins: Free kick to Man City! Jack Grealish is brought down right on the edge of the penalty area and City will have a could chance to score from this.

Kevin De Bruyne is replaced with Kyle Walker before the free kick is taken. It’s likely that City will run this to the corner flag.
