Nigerian striker Samuel Chukwueze came off the bench to score a last-gasp equalizer to send Villareal into the Champions League final following a 1-1 draw against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
Robert Lewandowski had levelled the aggregate score earlier in the game at Allianz Arena before Chukwueze’s stunner in the 88th minute.
The Yellow Submarines had come into the encounter with a 1-0 advantage from the first-leg and only need a draw to progress into the last four.

Chukwueze has now made history as only the fourth Nigerian to reach a Champions League semi-final after Nwankwo Kanu and Finidi George with Ajax and Mikel Obi for Chelsea.
