2-3!7-8!Premier League Nightmare: Arsenal, Manchester City, all eliminated, Real Madrid, Bayern meet the Champions League semi-finals

In the early morning of April 18, Beijing time, the last two games of the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals started at the same time, and the four giants Arsenal, Bayern, Manchester City, and Real Madrid fought against each other.

拜仁1-0（总比分3-2）阿森纳

For Arsenal, who have never touched the Champions League trophy, five-time champion Bayern Munich can be said to be the team's biggest sufferer in the Champions League. Prior to this season, the last three times the two teams met in the Champions League, the scores were all 5-1 and the Gunners were beaten to the bottom.

The first leg between the two teams met and Bayern still drew away from home despite their poor form, which also made the second leg full of suspense.

The gunners, who are worth a total of 1.16 billion, fought on two fronts, but they still did not hold back. Last weekend's league fixture, the team lost 2-0 at home to Aston Villa and dropped the chain at the end of the season, and the Gunners' title prospects are in doubt. The last time the team reached the last four of the Champions League was 15 years ago.

Bayern, who are worth a total of 930 million, won a tough victory over Cologne last weekend, but Bayern's 11-game Bundesliga winning streak came to an end due to Bayer Leverkusen's 5-0 victory.

In the first half, both teams played more cautiously, and Bayern, playing at home, wasted some chances. Defensively, Manuel Neuer made a brilliant save to keep the ball in the back of the net.

Bayern came close to scoring early in the second half when Goretzka's header hit the crossbar and Guerreiro's follow-up shot was blocked by Ben White and hit the post.

Arsenal's crisis continued, and in the 63rd minute, Guerreiro's swift cross was met by Kimmich in the back row and headed home.

In the end, the favourites Arsenal lost 0-1 away to Bayern Munich and were eliminated 2-3 on aggregate, and the Gunners missed the Champions League semi-finals for 15 consecutive seasons.

Manchester City 4-5 (7-8 on aggregate) Real Madrid

The first leg of the meeting between the two teams can be described as ups and downs, full of drama, and a 3-3 draw also made fans look forward to the second leg of the meeting.

After the injury situation was alleviated, Real Madrid, which is worth a total of 1.02 billion, gradually regained stability, leading the league with 8 points, which also gave the team plenty of energy to deal with the Champions League.

Compared with Real Madrid, which has won the Champions League 14 times, the outside world is more optimistic about the defending champion Manchester City. Liverpool and Arsenal lost all in the last round of the Premier League, Manchester City regained the top position in the standings, and for the blue moon, which is worth a total of 1.25 billion, the possibility of defending the title on two lines is gradually increasing.

In the 12th minute, Real Madrid played a quick counterattack, Vinicius crossed from the bottom, Rodrygo hit twice in front of the goal, Ederson was good enough to save the first shot, but in the face of the Brazilian team-mate's close-range shot, there was really nothing to do, and Real Madrid took the lead away.

After conceding the goal, Manchester City launched a tidal attack, Haaland was quite strong, and the desire to shoot was strong enough, and Real Madrid was in front of the goal.

In the 19th minute, Haaland's header hit the crossbar, and the B seat could not react and could only passively make up for it, missing a good opportunity. In the first half, Real Madrid temporarily led 1-0 away.

In the first half, Manchester City temporarily trailed 0-1, and after the start of the second half, Manchester City's attack was more fierce.

In the 73rd minute, Doku, who had just come on as a substitute, was blocked with a low cross, and De Bruyne equalised.

After 90 minutes of regular time, the two teams were tied again, and both sides did not score in extra time and had to go to a penalty shootout.

In the first round, Modric's shot was saved, and in the second round, the shot from seat B was confiscated. After that, Kovacic's shot was also saved, and Real Madrid hit all four of them. In the end, Real Madrid won 4-3 on penalties, eliminated Manchester City 8-7 on aggregate over the two legs, and advanced to the semi-finals.
