Man City ease into Champions League semis with 1-1 draw at Bayern; Inter sees off Benfica in thriller

Erling Haaland scored as Manchester City beat Bayern Munich 4-1 on aggregate in the quarterfinals of the Champions League to set up a semifinal clash with Real Madrid

Manchester City cruised into the Champions League semi-finals after a 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich on Wednesday secured a 4-1 aggregate win that moved them a step closer to an elusive first title in the competition.

City forward Erling Haaland, who had missed a first-half penalty, made amends in the 57th minute, drilling in his 48th goal in all competitions this season to kill off the tie before Bayern levelled with a Joshua Kimmich penalty in the 83rd.

It was City's 15th consecutive game without defeat across all competitions and Pep Guardiola's team, losing finalists in 2021, will next face holders Real Madrid in the last four.

It was also the 10th time Guardiola had reached the semi-finals as a coach, a new record.

"I am so happy to be three in a row semi-finals (with City)," Guardiola said. "I could not expect (Bayern) differently, you saw how good they are."

"In this competition it is the details. In these two games in the right moments we were there," said Guardiola, who coached Bayern from 2013-16.

"In the second half we adjusted some things and since minute one in the second half we felt were much, much more in control."
