Blues 7-4 to rule Europe as Bayern reach final

Chelsea knocked one Spanish giant out of the Champions League on Tuesday night and Bayern Munich followed suit on Wednesday, beating Real Madrid 3-1 on penalties at the Bernabeu.

Bayern are 1-2 to lift the Champions League trophy in a final that will be played in their own stadium while Chelsea are 7-4 to triumph in Germany.

Cristiano Ronaldo had given Real the perfect start with two goals in the first 15 minutes but Arjen Robben's penalty levelled the tie at 3-3 and extra-time couldn't separate the two sides.

Bayern's Bastian Schweinsteiger smashed home the winning penalty and the Germans are 10-1 with bet365 to win the final in a shootout.

Coral make Chelsea 11-4 to win inside 90 minutes but Bayern are odds-on favourites to get the job done in normal time.

Real's beaten manager Jose Mourinho is Hills's 3-1 second-favourite to be Chelsea's next permanent manager, behind interim boss Roberto Di Matteo.
