After an impressive first half in this clash between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, it's the Bavarians who go into the break ahead at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Sharp and relentless, Bayern dominated proceedings but failed to capitalize on Madrid's mistakes during the opening period of this Champions League quarter-final first leg. The missed opportunity was summed up by Pitarch's gift squandered by Gnabry in front of Lunin.

Bayern's dominance finally paid off just before halftime: set through on goal by Gnabry, Diaz coolly finished past Lunin (0-1, 41').
