Bayern Munich scored two late goals to knock record 15-time European champions Real Madrid out of the Champions League following a thrilling 4-3 win at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday.

The quarterfinal second leg ended in acrimony with Madrid's players furious that referee Slavko Vinčić sent off Eduardo Camavinga with a second yellow card for an innocuous looking foul on Harry Kane after being urged to do so by the Bayern players in the 86th minute.

Luis Díaz fired inside the right post three minutes later and Michael Olise ended the contest definitively with a shot in off the far post in stoppage time to give Bayern a 6-4 win on aggregate after the Bavarian powerhouse won the first leg of their quarterfinal 2-1 in Madrid last week.

Bayern will play Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinals after reaching the last four for the 14 time, second only to Madrid's 17.

The victory also snapped a run of four straight defeats to Madrid in the Champions League knockout stages and condemned the Spanish giants to quarterfinal exits in successive seasons for the first time.
