Villarreal

Bayern Munich trail Villarreal 1-0 from the Champions League quarter-final first leg. Can Robert Lewandowski inspire a turnaround to send the Bundesliga ...

There is the possibility for the game to go to extra time, and possibly even penalties, if Bayern win by just one goal. 65 minutes to KO: We have the Bayern team for tonight. They set up this clash with Bayern after a 3-0 away win at Juventus in the last 16 saw them go through on 4-1 aggregate. 2 minutes: Sane finds space on the right and his cross finds Thomas Muller in the middle. 25 minutes: Midway through the first half and the good news for Villarreal is they still have their one-goal lead in the tie. But a fine ball from Etienne Capoue finds Gerard Moreno on the right and he cuts in and drills a shot just wide. 30 minutes: Musiala has Bayern's first effort on target as his header is straight at Rulli. Villarreal are content to keep the midfield tight and allow Bayern space on the flanks. 20 minutes: Bayern are upping the tempo and Nagelsmann is nodding contently from the touchline. Bayern are ahead on the night and level on aggregate. Sounds simple on paper but in reality this is going to be a very half for Emery's men. It is all Bayern now and they are causing Villarreal panic every time they go forward. 62 minutes: Just a reminder if it stays this way at 1-0 to Bayern we are going to extra time.

Liverpool will face Villarreal in the UEFA Champions League semi-final if they are to go through against Benfica in tomorrow's second leg.

Substitute Samuel Chukwueze finished off a fantastic counter attacking goal for the away team. However, Villareal held out until their moment of glory. The Spanish side score a late equaliser to knock Bayern Munich out.

The "Yellow Submarine" has claimed another of Europe's elite sides as Villarreal continue their run and make Bayern rue some missed opportunities.

Despite an array of attacking talent which saw them come out with five forwards, Bayern couldn't break through and Villarreal had the best first-half chances -- both wasted by Danjuma and Gerard Moreno. But when Robert Lewandowski put Bayern ahead and levelled the aggregate scores by finishing off a Thomas Muller pass on 52 minutes, it seemed inevitable that the home side would surge to the victory by exploiting gaps in the Villarreal defence. At one point in the first-half, every Villarreal player was behind the eighteen-yard line as they attempted to frustrate Bayern, and the tactic worked. Arnaut Danjuma's goal in the first-leg -- Francis Coquelin had another goal ruled out by VAR -- gave Villarreal a slender advantage going into this game and it seemed an impossible task for Emery's side considering that Bayern, with 30 goals in the competition this season prior to kick-off, were the top scorers in the Champions League by some distance, with Manchester City in second place on 24 goals. They are hard-working and committed and they have a taste for upsetting European football royalty. Emery's team stunned Juventus in Turin to eliminate the Italian giants in the Round of 16 and they have now beaten Bayern. And Villarreal are what they have always been, a team that punches way above their weight.

Sports Desk, Apr 12 (EFE).- The two most recent Champions League winners went out of the 2021-2022 edition of Europe's elite club competition on Tuesday, ...

Bayern, who have won the Champions League six times, most recently in 2020, were heavily favored against the LaLiga side, but lost the first leg 1-0 and had to wait until the 52nd minute of Tuesday’s contest to get on the board courtesy of Robert Lewandowski. Europa League holders Villarreal were looking at the prospect of extra time against Bayern at Munich’s Allianz Arena as the sides were deadlocked 1-1 on aggregate, but late sub Samuel Chukwueze scored with two minutes left in regulation to send the Spanish club into the semifinals. After falling 3-1 in the first leg in London, the Blues stormed out to a 3-0 lead at the Santiago Bernabeu to take a 4-3 edge in the tie, but youngster Rodrygo leveled the aggregate for the hosts in the 80th minute and veteran Karim Benzema got the winner in extra time.

As Chelsea's comeback to take Real Madrid into extra time took center stage, elsewhere the biggest giant slaying of the tournament took place.

Los Blancos have a reason to be aggravated with Chelsea's goal from the corner but you can't lose Rudiger in the box and expect not to pay. Real Madrid will feel lucky but that is a showing of what is to come if things don't improve. Chukwueze with a late, late goal to flip the script! Chelsea was noticeably weaker when he was substituted in the 83rd minute but it feels like he has taken over the left wing position for now. If he made contact it would've been a red card but luckily for Madrid, the crisis was averted. The change of pace was needed after the starters went 90+ minutes at a torrid pace versus Madrid but the reserves let their team down. Chelsea thought they had someone of that caliber in Romelu Lukaku but he was absent from the match just like their Champions League chances. Had Bayern somehow scraped through, the possibility of a heavy defeat to Liverpool was strong. Christian Pulisic also had two good chances for the Blues in the closing minutes but was unable to finish them leading to extra time. Chukwueze ensured that it was ultimately a success by converting with Villarreal's only shot on target and this is a defeat that will hurt the 2020 winners. However, Bayern were far more creative that the Spaniards overall and that was partly due to Emery's game plan to absorb the pressure and try to counter. Julian Nagelsmann's side were unable to kick on, though, and it was Villarreal who found the crucial winning goal with a lethal counterattack finished off by Samuel Chukwueze to silence the home support.

The decisive moment in Bavaria came when Dani Parejo gained possession by the Villarreal penalty area and then launched the breakaway by sending the ball to Giovani Lo Celso. Lo Celso then slid a pass across the face of goal and Chukwueze struck into the top corner of the net. "What this team has done is great.” In the other game, Villarreal stunned six-time European champion Bayern Munich to reach the Champions League semifinals for the first time in 16 years thanks to Samuel Chukwueze's 88th-minute goal that salvaged a 1-1 draw and a 2-1 aggregate victory. Villarreal's 1-0 lead from the first leg was wiped out by Robert Lewandowski seven minutes into the second half, but Chukwueze completed a counterattack within four minutes of coming off the bench to extend the Spanish team's surprising run in the competition. Chelsea sits in third place in the Premier League, five points clear of Tottenham in the final Champions League place with a game in hand. The hosts had looked beaten after going down 3-0 in regulation, but substitute Rodrygo evened the aggregate score in the 80th and Madrid found a way to reach the last four for the 10th time in the last 12 seasons.

First Juventus, now Bayern Munich. Villarreal is proving to be the giant killer in this season's Champions League.

In all, Bayern outshot Villarreal 23-4 and outpossessed the visitor 68%-32% as part of a one-sided statistical performance. Villarreal in Spain on Arnaut Danjuma’s goal, and perhaps even more surprisingly was held scoreless in the first half of the second leg at home. Villarreal withstood a barrage of chances and picked its spots wisely, and it moves onto the semifinals, where it’ll face Liverpool unless Benfica can overturn a 3–1 aggregate deficit at Anfield on Wednesday.
