Bayern score late to win seven-goal thriller over Real Madrid
The quickest strike in this season's Champions League, seven goals, two red cards and the competition's 15-time winners exiting in anger - once again the knockout stages of European club football's elite contest has delivered drama in spades.
"If the start of this game is anything to go by then we are in for a hell of a night," said former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard on TNT Sports after Real Madrid struck 35 seconds into Wednesday's quarter-final second leg at Bayern Munich to level the tie at 2-2.
The German champions held a 2-1 lead from the first leg in Madrid, but Arda Guler's lightning-fast 25-yard strike following a mistake by home keeper Manuel Neuer set the tone for a breathless return at the Allianz Arena.
It was the fastest goal in this season's competition and followed by four more in a frenetic, fabulous first-half.
