Real Madrid and Bayern Munich battled to a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals at the Allianz Arena.

Real Madrid seized an early advantage against the run of play, with Toni Kroos threading a fine pass to set up Vinicius Junior, who beat Manuel Neuer in a one-on-one duel to score the opener.

Leroy Sane put the game back level with a sensational solo goal, before Harry Kane put the home side in front, converting a penalty after Lucas Vazquez fouled Jamal Musiala.
