Real Madrid will face Borussia Dortmund in this year’s Champions League final.This follows their dramatic 2-1 win over Bayern Munich on Wednesday night.

The game was delicately poised at 2-2 after the first leg at the Allianz Arena.

And it was Thomas Tuchel’s men who took the lead in Spain through substitute Alphonso Davies.

However, Real struck twice in the dying minutes of the clash at the Bernabeu to seal their place in the final.

Carlo Ancelotti’s men will be looking to win the competition for an incredible 15th time at Wembley on June 1.

Paris Saint-Germain forward, Kylian Mbappé, has taken the blame for their Champions League exit on Tuesday.

Their semi-final tie against Borussia Dortmund finished 2-0 on aggregate, after they lost 1-0 in front of their fans in the second leg.

Mbappe has admitted that the result was down to missed chances, a few of which came from him.

The Ligue 1 champions had almost 70% of the possession and took 30 shots in the second leg, hitting the woodwork four times.

“I tried to help my team as best as I could but I didn’t do enough.

“When we talk about being efficient in the boxes, I think I’m the one targeted. I’m the guy who should score goals and be decisive.

“When things are good, I take all the limelight and when they are not, you have to take the shadow. That’s not a problem.

“The first one who should have scored tonight was me. That’s life and we have to move on, me and the team,” Mbappé said after the game at Parc des Princes.

The Nigeria Football Federation has announced the appointment of Finidi George as new Super Eagles head coach.

The former international beat Emmanuel Amuneke to the job.

George, who spent 20 months as an assistant to José Santos Peseiro before the Portuguese voluntarily left the post following the accomplishment of Africa Cup of Nations runner-up position at Cote d’Ivoire 2023, took charge of the squad in an interim capacity during two friendly matches in Morocco last month.

George’s immediate task will be to guide the Super Eagles to victory in two 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches against South Africa and Benin Republic in Uyo and Abidjan, respectively, in a little over five weeks.

The matches are must-win encounters, with the Super Eagles lagging behind in third place in Group C of the African campaign behind Rwanda and South Africa.
