Manchester City saw off the challenge of Bayern Munich with a 1-1 draw at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday to cruise into the Champions League semifinals 4-1 on
Despite a lack of goals, the first half was an eventful one, particularly for Bayern Munich defender Upamecano.Having put in an unconvincing performance and been at fault for City’s second goal a week ago, the centre-back began another night to forget when referee Clement Turpin showed him a red card after just 18 minutes for bringing down Haaland. To his and Bayern’s great relief, the assistant referee’s offside flag was immediately raised, nullifying the sending off.
But, following a long wait, Haaland offered Upamecano another reprieve when he blasted his penalty over the bar to end a run of 18 successful conversions from the spot, excluding shootouts, and a first miss in a City shirt.Outside of Upamecano’s adventures, Bayern were left frustrated by a serious of near-misses as they attempted to kickstart their comeback.
