REAL MADRID 2-1 BAYERN MUNICH -Real Madrid book UCL final spot with late rally over Bayern Munich


Real Madrid's Joselu scored twice in the final minutes as they fought back from the brink of elimination to reach the Champions League final with a dramatic 2-1 second-leg win over Bayern Munich on Wednesday that sent them through 4-3 on aggregate.

Real progressed to their sixth Champions League final in 10 years, and they will bid for a record-extending 15th title against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on June 1.

In a repeat of their spectacular semifinal comeback win over Manchester City two years ago, Real saw their opponents take the lead after Bayern substitute Alphonso Davies scored from a counterattack in the 68th minute.

But Joselu climbed off the bench to equalise following a calamitous error from Manuel Neuer in the 88th minute and, two minutes later, he shinned a second into the Bayern goal from a cross by Antonio Rüdiger.
