Sharjah24: Bayern Munich took a significant step towards the Champions League semi-finals with their first win at the Santiago Bernabéu since 2001, securing a 2-1 victory in the first leg of their quarter-final.

A significant shift in European football momentum

Bayern's victory over the record 15-time champions was thanks to goals from Colombian Luis Díaz (41') and England's Harry Kane (46'), who put them ahead 2-0 before Frenchman Kylian Mbappé pulled one back for Real Madrid (74'). 

The second leg will take place next Wednesday in Munich. The winner of this tie will face either defending champions Paris Saint-Germain or Liverpool in the semi-finals. The two teams, Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool, play their first leg today in Paris.
