Gomez late show gives Bayern crucial advantage

Bayern Munich beat Real Madrid 2-1 in their Champions League semi-final first leg after Mario Gomez's 89th-minute winner earned the Germans a crucial advantage to take to the Bernabeu.

Bookmakers reacted by making Bayern 4-1 to win the trophy and bet365 rate them 6-5 to reach the final, while Madrid can be backed at 4-6 to overturn the deficit and 3-1 to lift the Champions League.

Jose Mourinho's men will still fancy their chances of fighting back on home soil, although it could have been better for them after Mesut Ozil cancelled out Franck Ribery's opener before Gomez's late show.
