2021 Champions League finalist Manchester City advanced to the last four after eliminating former champions Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals following a 1-1 draw in their second leg on Wednesday

City, who came into the game with a 3-0 goal advantage supplied the minimal requirement of a draw to seal their spot in the next round.

Joshua Kimmich’s 83rd-minute penalty canceled Erling Haaland’s 57th-minute opener to add some respectability to the aggregate score as Bayern’s journey in the competition ends at home.

The result sees the Manchester club move forward with a 4-1 aggregate win.

AC Milan also advance the next following a draw

A drawn result was also good enough to secure Inter Milan’s passage to the next round following a 3-3 draw with Benfica as the fixture ended 5-3 aggregate in Milan’s favor.

Both teams now join AC Milan and title holder Real Madrid as the final four teams in Europe’s premier football competition
