A great win for the holders, but it’s still all to play for in this one.

It’s all over at the Vicent Calderon. That’s not a bad result for the Foxes.

And again! That’s top class from Neuer, who extends his arm to stop Ronaldo’s attempt.
12 Apr 2017
9:19PM
Benzema kept out – Neuer is a match for the Real Madrid striker’s first-time efforts. Moments later, the Bayern number one gets down to block Asensio’s strike.
12 Apr 2017
9:11PM
Two Bayern changes – Ancelotti brings on Juan Barnat and Douglas Costa for Alonso and Ribery.
12 Apr 2017
9:06PM
RED CARD! Javi Martinez is sent off and Bayern are down to 10 men. The Spaniard picks up a second booking for a late challenge on Ronaldo.
Meanwhile, Madrid have replaced Bale with talented 21-year-old attacking midfielder Marco Asensio.
12 Apr 2017
9:03PM
Great stop! Modric puts the ball onto Bale’s head and he directs it goalwards. However, the attempt is too close to Neuer and the Bayern goalkeeper makes a cracking save.
12 Apr 2017
9:01PM
Still 1-0 to Atleti in Madrid, but there’s been some bad news for Leicester as a Robert Huth booking for his foul on Griezmann means the German defender is suspended for the return leg. Club captain Wes Morgan is out through injury at the moment too.
GOAL! Bayern Munich 1-1 Real Madrid (Cristiano Ronaldo)
There’s the equaliser. Casemiro feeds Carvajal out wide and the Spaniard’s cross is met by Ronaldo, who guides a volley into the far corner with expert precision.

And he misses! Vidal blazes over the bar from 12 yards. Still 1-0.
The spot-kick had been awarded after Carvajal blocked Ribery’s strike with his arm. Very harsh decision.

PENALTY TO BAYERN…
12 Apr 2017
8:30PM
Yellow card – Kroos picks up a booking for crashing into international team-mate Muller.
12 Apr 2017
8:28PM
Save – Ronaldo is fed the ball 25 yards out. He turns and launches a strike at goal, but Neuer gets down well to bat it away.
12 Apr 2017
8:27PM
Decent chance! And it goes the way of Bayern. Robben shows incredible close control to make space for himself out on the right flank. His cross to the back post is a good one and Vidal — arriving late — heads off target.
12 Apr 2017
8:24PM
Casemeiro sticks his leg out to block Vidal but it’s the Brazilian who comes off worse and he requires treatment.
GOAL! Atletico Madrid 1-0 Leicester City (Antoine Griezmann)
Albrighton collides with Griezmann but it’s outside the box. Nevertheless, the home side are awarded a penalty and the Frenchman dusts himself off to score past Schmeichel.
GOAL! Bayern Munich 1-0 Real Madrid (Arturo Vidal)
The Germans hit the front. Vidal isn’t picked up sufficiently for the corner and the Chilean midfielder powers home a header.
12 Apr 2017
8:04PM
Off the bar! Kroos sends in a delightful cross, which is met by the head of Benzema. Neuer is stretching but manages to get a fingertip to knock the effort onto the crossbar.
12 Apr 2017
8:01PM
Boateng catches Benzema on the ankle and Real Madrid have a free-kick in a dangerous position.
Ronaldo to take… and he blasts over the bar.

8:00PM
Carvajal is down receiving treatment after a collision with Vidal. Replays show that the contact was minimal, however, and the full-back will be fine.
12 Apr 2017
7:53PM
At the Allianz Arena, Real Madrid put together a meaningful attack involving Modric, Bale and Ronaldo. The Portuguese captain tries his luck from distance but it strikes a Bayern player.

It’s been 100 miles-per-hour in the Atletico Madrid – Leicester game and Koke has just smashed the ball off the crossbar from 25 yards out.

“You Spanish b******s, Gibraltar is ours”.
There’s been some trouble caused by a minority of Leicester City fans in Madrid this afternoon, with eight supporters arrested after several people were injured in clashes with police last night.
Those ugly scenes have continued this afternoon, as this video from AS shows…
GOOD EVENING. AFTER yesterday’s events in Germany, the quarter-final meeting between Borussia Dortmund and Monaco was rescheduled to be played this evening.
The second half of that one has just begun, with the visitors leading 2-0 thanks to Kylian Mbappe’s opener and an own-goal from Sven Bender.
At 7.45pm, we’ve got two more Champions League last-eight ties as Bayern Munich host reigning champions Real Madrid, while surprise packages Leicester City travel to the Spanish capital to take on Atletico Madrid.
We’ll be focusing on events in Bavaria while also checking in regularly to the other match.

GOA… offside. Ramos appears to have scored a third for Madrid, but his header is rightly ruled out.

Real Madrid sub – Benzema off, James Rodriguez on.
Just wide! Marcelo has a great chance to make it three, but blasts the ball the wrong side of the post.

KICK-OFF – Thiago tips the ball back into his half, and we’re away. Bayern are in their traditional red and white, Madrid wearing all-black.
Here come the team, this should be tasty. In the early game, Monaco have edged out Borussia Dortmund 3-2 in a pulsating affair.
More of the same here, please.
