MUNICH, Germany : It was neither the sparkling season some Bayern Munich fans had expected in coach Julian Nagelsmann's first one in charge nor was it the bruising one others had anticipated as the team goes through a transition phase.
Villarreal scored an 88th minute equaliser through substitute Samuel Chukwueze to snatch a stunning 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich and advance to the Champions League semi-finals with a 2-1 aggregate win over the Germans on Tuesday. Six-time European champions Bayern, who had won 12 of their previous 13 home games in the competition, levelled the tie when Robert Lewandowski drilled the ball in off the post after 52 minutes with his 13th Champions League goal of the season. But they failed to find the net again despite intense pressure in the second half and several missed chances. Instead it was Villarreal, semi-finalists in 2006, who scored against the run of play with Chukwueze beating goalkeeper Manuel Neuer with a left-foot effort to silence the home crowd.
