Real Madrid suffered a setback in their UEFA Champions League quarter-final as they went down 2-0 at home to Bayern Munich on Tuesday night at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
Bayern Munich raced to a two-goal advantage thanks to expert finishes from Luis Díaz and Harry Kane, with goals coming on either side of the half-time interval. The German side’s clinical display left Los Blancos struggling to respond throughout the match.
Kylian Mbappé later pulled one back for Real Madrid, taking his tally to 39 goals in 40 appearances across all competitions this season, offering a glimmer of hope ahead of the second-leg clash in Munich next Wednesday. Despite the late goal, the Spanish giants face an uphill battle to overturn the deficit in the return leg.
