Chukwueze scores late equaliser as Villarreal stun Bayern Munich to reach semi-finals

Samuel Chukwueze scored a late winner as Villarreal stunned Bayern Munich to reach the Champions League semi-finals.

Unai Emery masterminded 1-0 victory in the first leg in Spain, but Bayern looked certain to advance after dominating the majority of the match.

But with just his side's second shot on target across both legs, Chukwueze levelled two minutes remaining.

Tottenham loanee Giovanni Lo Celso lead the counter-attack, slipping through Gerard Moreno behind the Bayern defence.

The Spain international played the perfect cross-field pass to meet Chukwueze, who finished brilliantly past Manuel Neuer.

Bayern mustered 23 shots during the match, but only four of which were in target.

The Yellow Submarine will meet Liverpool or Benfica in the semi-finals, with the Reds leading 3-1 heading into the second-leg at Anfield on Wednesday.
