All it took was one shot for Real Madrid to break the early deadlock in Munich.

The visitors absorbed plenty of pressure in the opening 20 minutes of Tuesday's Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich, but the tide changed after Toni Kroos sliced Bayern's defense open with a superb pass to Vinicius Junior, who eluded his marker Kim Min-jae with ease before scoring from inside the penalty area in the 24th minute to make it 1-0.
