In a thrilling encounter at the Santiago Bernabeu, Joselu's brace proved to be the saving grace for Real Madrid. His late heroics, coupled with a crucial fumble by Bayern's Neuer for the equalizer, secured a dramatic 2-1 victory in the second leg. With a 4-3 aggregate triumph, Real advances to their sixth Champions League final in 10 years, eyeing a record-extending 15th title showdown against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on June 1st.
In a reminiscent fashion of their memorable semi-final comeback against Manchester City two years prior, Real Madrid found themselves trailing after Bayern substitute Alphonso Davies unleashed a remarkable strike from a counterattack in the 68th minute. However, Joselu emerged from the bench to level the score in the 88th minute, capitalizing on a calamitous error from Manuel Neuer. Just two minutes later, Joselu struck again, directing a second goal into the Bayern net from a cross delivered by Antonio Ruediger.
