Perfectly balanced as all things should be. ⚖️

WHAT A HIT FROM SANE!

HARRY KANE SCORES FOR BAYERN!

Comeback complete for Bayern… for now 👀

Vinícius Júnior has now scored as many goals in the knockout rounds of the Champions League as he has in the group stages:

◎ Group stage: 27 games, 10 goals
◉ Knockout rounds: 27 games, 10 goals

Identical records. 🪞

FT: Bayern 2-2 Real Madrid

For just the third time since 2003/04, both teams have taken a penalty in a Champions League semi-final:

◉ Real Madrid vs. Bayern (2012)
◉ Bayern vs. Atlético (2016)
◉ Bayern vs. Real Madrid (2024)

It's happened again. 😅

Harry Kane has now been directly involved in more goals in a single Champions League campaign than any other Englishman in the competition’s history:

◎ 11 games
◉ 8 goals
◉ 3 assists

He only had to leave England to break it. 😅
