Hours before the kickoff at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich supporters started posting on social networking sites that they would take down their 1-0 deficit of the Leg-1 and " Humiliate " Real Madrid at their home ground.
But, the result turned out to be a little different.
Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid were on fire as they smashed an away victory and bagged their place in the Finals of the UEFA Champions League. They sailed to the Finals after their one-sided victory over the defending European champions, Bayern Munich.
This defeat, was a humiliation for the Bavarians in every prospect after they thrashed Barca in the Semi-Finals before overcoming fellow Bundesliga mates, Borussia Dortmund to lift the trophy for the fifth time. This would however increase the pressure on manager, Pep Guardiola who has been able to win the league in the record time but failed to deliver the progress what his employers were expecting of him.
The future of the former Barca coach would be still a concern to Real as they now in the Finals of the UEFA Champions and they have a golden chance to add another Champions League trophy when last time Zinedine Zidane high volley gave them their ninth Champions League title. Ancelotti's boys were in the fifth gear on the pitch and got their first victory over the Bavarians in their ten attempts.
Real Vs. Bayern
As It Happened......
With Carlo Ancelotti and Zidane sitting on the bench, watching the Los Blancos on the German soil, Real Madrid started the match with a verve and were looking to get into the Finals of the UEFA Champions League from the very beginning.
Gareth Bale had got really close of scoring the opener for his side but with a weak punch by Manuel Neure, the ball went a corner for the Los Blancos. Spaniard Sergio Ramos was left unmarked during the corner kick and he headed the opener from Luka Modric's corner kick.
Shortly afterwards, Real were able to double their lead as Ramos was again able to put the ball in the back of the net when Angel Di Maria's exceptionally great curling free kick was headed into Bayern's goal.
Bayern fans were stunned and were left speechless by the style of football produced by Real, which is very unlikely to see. Ancelotti's Madrid were on full throttle as they smashed their third goal .Karim Benzema hooked the ball for Gareth Bale who got clear and squared the ball of Cristiano Ronaldo who made another record of 15 goals in one Champions League season.
With Bayern needing four goals to square of the Semi-Final, the second half was kind of flat for the spectators. The Bavarians were trying to have a comeback as Arjen Robben curled the ball dangerously near the goal twice and Frank Ribery got a rare save from Iker Casillas.
Real were winning on an aggregate of 4-0, but something was still left for the fans.
Portuguese forward, Cristiano Ronaldo curled a 20-yard free-kick into Bayern's net and completed off their misery and ignominy time.
