For Real Madrid, 15-time Champions League winners, Kylian Mbappe scored one goal in 74th minute against Bayern so the deficit is just one goal when they face off again in the second leg of QF a week later.

Despite lead, Bayern would be wary of Real, which are known for comebacks and can easily turn the tables if given slightest of opportunity.
