Defending champions Bayern Munich have entered the semi finals of the Champions League by beating Premier League holders Manchester United 3-1 at home in Allianz Arena on Wednesday.

Having drawn 1-1 at Old Trafford in last week's first-leg, the German stars fought back fiercely at home to win 4-2 on aggregate in their quarter-final, second-leg clash against United.

According to Sport24, despite an impressive second-half strike by United left-back Patrice Evra, Bayern equalised almost immediately through a diving Mario Mandzukic header, the first of their three goals in the final half an hour.

Thomas Mueller then tapped Bayern into the lead before Arjen Robben slotted the hosts third to knock David Moyes' United out of the competition, the report added.
