UEFA Champions League: Blancos Gain Game-Two Home Draw With Bayern To Advance; Will Face Liverpool-Roma Winner In Final

At Madrid:

Karim Benzema scored twice (11', 46') as Real Madrid gained a game-two 2-2 home deadlock with Bayern Munich, enough for the two-time defending champions to win their UEFA Champions League semifinal series 4-3 on aggregate.


Here's Cristiano Ronaldo (with his back turned) facing Bayern's Joshua Kimmich, after the latter had scored for the German titans in the third minute. 


Los Blancos will take on the winner of the Liverpool-Roma series (which the Reds lead 5-2 on aggregate after game one) in their third straight Champions League Final, to be played at NSC Olimpiyskiy Stadium in Kiev, Ukraine.
