Real Madrid needs two late goals
In two thrilling Champions League semi-final matches, Real Madrid staged a remarkable late comeback to defeat Bayern Munich 2-1 in a dramatic encounter at Santiago Bernabéu. Despite a stunning strike from Bayern's Alphonso Davies in the 68th minute, the hosts left it late with goals in the 88th and stoppage time to secure their spot in the final. The hero of the night was substitute Joselu, who scored both goals in the final moments, turning the game on its head.
Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who had an otherwise excellent game, made a critical mistake that led to Real’s equalizer. Real Madrid's persistence paid off when Joselu found the net again deep into added time, initially ruled offside but later confirmed by VAR. The real drama in this match came at the very end, when Mathijs de Ligt scored the 2-2. Unfortunately for him and Bayern the referee blew his whistle just before the goal for a possible offside. A huge mistake by the ref, who has to play on in these kind of situations with VAR behind him. Since he already blew the whistle before the goal, VAR couldn't intervene anymore.
