Caption competition?

Fair to say Bayern boss Jose Barcola was unimpressed with the sending off.

Barcelona

Barcelona midfielder Alexia Putellas speaking to Disney+: "It's a tough team but in the first half, we kept a clean sheet and in the second half, we had more control. In the end, we should have scored another goal with one player more.

"We knew the [7-1] was a crazy result because we were so good, almost perfect and they were not good. We knew this game would be different and as you saw, we were right.

"This is the semi-final of the Champions League - a big game. We are grateful to play in this stadium - the supporters were amazing."

As the average positions of the Barcelona players show, the visitors had Bayern Munich pinned inside their own half for much of that match.

Barcelona couldn't find a second goal though.

Unfortunately for Bayern, Barcelona only seem to score bangers against them in this competition. The finish from Pajor was unbelievable. Nine times out of ten they go over the bar or hit your shin. She makes it look easy. She's a fox in the box.

That will do it.

A thrilling first leg encounter ends all square.

Ewa Pajor gave Barcelona an early lead with a brilliant finish, but Bayern worked hard and drew level through Franziska Kett.

She went from hero to zero when she was sent off for pulling the hair of Barcelona's Salma Paralluelo, but Bayern hung on.

The Germans will head to Catalunya next week on a level footing.

The ball falls at the feet of Salma Paralluelo, but the Barcelona winger rifles over from eight yards out. That was the chance.

It's constant Barcelona pressure but Bayern are equal to everything.

Pernille Harder looks to break, but is brought down by Clara Serrajordi who is booked.

Bayern Munich have five more minutes to hang on.

Patri Guijarro sees her overhead kick attempt blocked, before a Mapi Leon piledriver is palmed away by Ena Mahmutovic.

This is a siege now.

It's all hands to the pump for Bayern Munich - this time a Patri header takes a deflection and Barca have another corner.

We said how good Bayern looked when they were able to get Kett further forward.

Harder drives with the ball, Kett continues her run and rifles it home. It's a fantastic finish!
