Manuel Neuer was the hero for Bayern Munich on Wednesday as his side went through to the Champions League final after beating Real Madrid 3-1 on penalties in the Santiago Bernabeu.
They will face Chelsea in their own Allianz Arena in Munich on May 19th
after losing their return leg 2-1 after extra-time, to send the tie into
penalties with the Germans having won by the same score in the first
game.
The keeper stopped Madrid's two initial spot-kicks from Cristiano
Ronaldo and Kaka, and Sergio Ramos blazed one over the bar before
Bastian Schweinsteiger held his nerve to put the four-times European
Champions through to the final. They last appeared in a final two years ago losing 2-0 on this same stage to Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan.
