Bayern Munich 2-1 Atletico Madrid: Uefa Champions League semi-final - as it happened

Full time: Bayern Munich (0) 2-1 (1) Atletico Madrid - Atletico Madrid reach 2016 Champions League final on away goals

Atletico Madrid grind it out and they take their place in this year's European Cup final in Milan. Bayern Munich threw everything at them but couldn't force their way through. Antoine Griezmann scored the decisive goal, with Thomas Muller's penalty miss proving critical. Pep Guardiola will arrive at Manchester City without having reached a final ion his three years at Bayern.

Well that is all we have time for this evening. We're back tomorrow with live coverage of Real Madrid vs Manchester City, which is finely poised after the first leg. Until then, goodbye.

Coman can't get the ball back across goal quick enough. On the touchline Simeone appears to have struck one of his own backroom team for delaying a substitution. Another chance for Coman, who takes the ball down at the back post but volleys well wide. Huge waste.

Corner for Bayern.....

Five added minutes at the Allianz Arena.

David Alaba is kept out by Oblak. Fine save which sees him push clear a deflected strike from 20 yards, and to danger.

A remarkable tie takes another twist. Fernando Torres wins a penalty from a challenge from Martinez which clearly took place outside of the penalty area. The Spaniard steps up and Neuer makes a good save to his right, in very much the same manner Oblak did in the first half. Bayern alive in this semi-final!

Torres misses

Penalty to Atletico

Half a chance for Bayern as Lahm plays a delicious ball into Muller, whose flicked header is just behind Lewandowski. Bayern will surely get one chance, but can they take it?

Goal: Bayern Munich 2-1 Atletico Madrid (Robert Lewandowski)

I make it from the minute I wrote off Bayern, they have gradually improved and now they are back in the tie. Alaba cross and when Ribery heads across goal, Lewandowski puts into an empty net. Around 15 minutes left plus added time to find that third goal.

Costa off and Conan on. Bit of a response from Bayern but Martinez wastes another presentable chance, heading over from another corner.

Sometimes you can sense when a team is preparing a comeback, but it is hard to convincingly state that Bayern are playing like a side threatening to turn this tie around. Atletico look pretty comfortable and despite being breached once tonight, you fancy them to keep the Germans quiet. Oblak does make a good save in fairness as Lewandowski shoots into the ground.

Godin hacks away a Muller header, who tries to find Lewandowski with a deft touch inside the Bayern box. The corner is cleared but Martinez stays forward and from the resulting cross heads over the bar.

The atmosphere at the Allianz Arena has completely changed, with the home support somewhat subdued since Atletico took charge of the tie. Bayern have lacked any sort of thrust since the leveller. Can they go again?

Bayern's shooting from range comes across as desperate now as Vidal lashes the ball wide. Must apologise to Griezmann, who appeared to be onside before scoring Atletico's goal. Such an important goal it is too with around half an hour to go.

Goal: Bayern Munich 1-1 Atletico Madrid (Antoine Griezmann)

Right on cue. Atletico Madrid level on the night and swings the tie back in their favour. Torres slips a ball through to Griezmann, who is beyond the last defender when the ball is played, but he is unperturbed and he tucks beyond Neuer. Key goal in this semi-final.

Lewandowski unable to latch onto Alonso's through ball as Bayern threaten again. The home side have not allowed their standards to slip for a single minute; can they keep it up? Atletico must surely improve.

Bayern's pressing, hustling and harrying showing no signs of letting up as they force a corner from nothing. Costa and Muller recycle the ball and it comes back to Vidal, whose shot is deflected wide. The resulting corner sees Martinez head over.

Atletico with an early free-kick from the left but Koke sweeps the ball straight into the hands of Neuer, who has barely been tested tonight.

Apologies, there one change for Atletico which saw Augusto replaced by Yannick Carrasco. Doesn't need saying that that is an attack-minded change.

Players out for the second half in Munich. No changes as yet from either Simeone or Guardiola.

Half time: Bayern Munich 1-0 Atletico Madrid

A pulsating first half at the Allianz Arena in Munich. Bayern have level in the tie after Xabi Alonso's deflected free-kick but it could have been so much better has Thomas Muller converted a penalty just minutes later, but Jan Oblak made a vital save. Atletico have been passive for the most part but they will require a big improvement if they're to survive a second half onslaught.

It is all Bayern again as Muller crosses for Lewandowski but a flying clearance from Gimenez keeps the ball from finding its way to the Pole. Atletico have offered nothing as an attacking force in this half and they have been on the back foot from the first kick.

It's all going off on the pitch as well as off it. Simeone and Guardiola eyeball each other after a clash involving Franck Ribery. We're back under way now in a first half which has been relentless.

Bayern handed the chance to double their lead as Gimenez is penalised for fouling Javi Martinez, but the home side can't take advantage. Muller steps up and Oblak claws away his effort with a save at a comfortable height. This tie has come alive and how big a moment could that be for Atletico?

Muller misses!

Penalty to Bayern Munich

Goal: Bayern 1-0 Atletico (Xabi Alonso)

Bayern get the goal their impressive start deserves. They win a free-kick outside the penalty area and Alonso takes aim with a ow shot which hits Gimenez and deflects beyond Oblak.

Jan Oblak already being reminded to speed up the set-pieces; a decent indication as to the kind of start both teams have made here. Bayern incisive and quick, Atletico ponderous.

Atletico really under the cosh in this opening quarter and Oblak nervously punches clear Ribery's effort before Lewandowski curls over the rebound. The home side want a penalty, but there really is nothing doing there. Fast start from Bayern, but yet to be rewarded by a goal.

The hosts should be ahead. Patient from Bayern until Alonso Boateng picks out Muller who ghosts in behind. His first touch finds Lewandowski instead of shooting and Oblak makes the low save. Big chance on a night where there may be few.

Bayern getting closer. Alonso picks out Lewandowski but his touch, not to mention his sharpness which has been lacking in recent weeks, evades him. Now Muller connects with a cross and again it is beyond his Polish strike partner.

Costa charges down Augusto's clearance but the ball fortuitously bounces into the arms of Oblak. Vidal now takes aim from range, in a repeat of the first leg. A shot across the bowels or an early sign of being frustrated by Atletico? Time will tell.

Bayern with all the ball and all the pressure early on. Ribery has a deflected shot which called the way of Lahm, but his cross is cleared. Lewandowski now gets on the end of Lahm's cross but can only head wide.

Corner for Bayern as Lewandowski outmuscles Luis. Ribery's cross finds Boateng at the back post but he can't control the header and it balloons over the bar.

The Spanish side have the first effort on goal as Luis shifts a wide free-kick back to Gabi, who drives goalwards but Neuer makes a comfortable save.

Atletico quickly into their stride and but for the linesman flag they come within inches of taking the lead on the night as Torres escapes in behind, but despite shooting past Neuer the officials haul him back.

Under way in Munich. This should be some evening.

Teams in the tunnel at a rocking Allianz Arena, where every fan in the east side of the stadium has a flag in hand and is waving it frantically, while the other half is making a mosaic of the Bayern badge - making for quite a sight as both sides enter the pitch. Minutes away from kick-off as the Champions League anthem explodes into life.

The winning stat of the evening.

Atletico are of course going for a La Liga-Champions League double during the final month of the season, with Diego Simeone looking to go one better than the heroics of the 2013-14 campaign. That year they won the title but were beaten by Real Madrid in the final. They could even be regarded as favourites should they win tonight.

Pep Guardiola is looking to make it third time lucky tonight in his final season with Bayern Munich. The Spaniard has been knocked out at the semi-final stage in each of his two full seasons with Bayern and has failed to jump the final hurdle. In his final season, with his move to Manchester City imminent can he take that final step with the German giants?

Bayern may be facing a defensive machine tonight, but at home they have been awesome of late in the Champions League. They have won their last 11 home European games in a row, score four and five twice, six once and seven once as well. They came back from two down to beat Juventus in the last round, so Atletico could ill-afford to rest on their laurels tonight.

If you needed any reminder as to the challenge facing Bayern tonight....

I can't let this live blog pass without at least a nod to the newly crowning Premier League champions Leicester City, who are celebrating their first top flight title after Tottenham were held at Chelsea last night. The Foxes will be representing the Premier League as English champions next season, and will be among the top seeds. Claudio Ranieri's side have swept aside all before them this term, and here is one of a number of pieces celebrating their triumph - this one focusing on the Italian's influence this season.

Last week's first leg was a keenly contested match which was decided by an early goal from Saul Niguez - an effort fit to win any football match as he dived inside Bayern players and found the corner with an expert shot. Atletico's awe-inspiring defensive record makes them favourites tonight but Bayern showed against Juventus that they can never be counted out. Here is a recap of the first leg, for those who have allowed it to slip their memory.

Very much as we expected from both sides. Bayern recall Boateng, Ribery and Muller after the trio missed the 1-0 loss in Madrid.

Atletico make just one change which sees influential defender Diego Godin replace Stefan Savic.

Teams:

Bayern Munich: Neuer, Ribéry, Martinez, Lewandowski, Costa, Alonso, Boateng, Lahm, Vidal, Müller, Alaba

Atletico Madrid: Oblak, Juanfran, Godin, Gimenez, Luis, Gabi, Augusto, Koke, Saul, Griezmann, Torres

Defence is likely to be key in this second leg, if the first leg is any indicator and we have two of the finest goalkeepers in Europe on show tonight. Jan Oblak has helped Atletico keep 15 clean sheets in their last 20 Champions League matches, while World Cup winner Manuel Neuer is regarded as the best goalkeeper in world football. A touch task ahead to break the deadlock.

The teams should be with us with around an hour to go until kick-off, but until then let's have a look and see how we expected both sides to line-up.

Jerome Boateng and Frank Ribery are fit again, and both expected to be among the 18 named by Pep Guardiola. it is yet to be seen whether Thomas Muller will be recalled after missing the first leg.

Atletico are without Tiago who is recovering from a broken leg but Diego Godin is back after also missing the first game a week ago.

Four will become two in the Champions League as the knock-out stage reaches its climax. First, we head to Munich where Pep Guardiola's Bayern must overturn a one-goal deficit against the stubborn Atletico Madrid. Saul Niguez's fabulous solo goal put the Spanish side ahead after the first leg, and we should expected much better from Guardiola's men as he prepares to take charge of Manchester City. Team news and all the updates on the way.
