City advances to the final four after a 1-1 draw with Bayern Munich, with Erling Haaland scoring despite a missed penalty.

Manchester City successfully booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals with a 1-1 draw against Bayern Munich, comfortably progressing with an overall 4-1 aggregate score. Taking a three-goal advantage into the second leg, Pep Guardiola’s side knew they only needed to avoid a disaster, and they did so with relative ease in Munich.

Although Erling Haaland missed a penalty in the first half, he redeemed himself after the break, capitalising on a slip by Bayern’s Dayot Upamecano to score and seal City’s passage to the next stage. Despite a late penalty for Bayern, converted by Joshua Kimmich, after a controversial handball decision against Manuel Akanji, it had no effect on City’s progression.

With their Champions League journey still intact, Manchester City now shifts focus to their upcoming FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield United and a crucial Premier League clash with Arsenal that could decide the title race.
