The defending champions were eliminated in the semi-final by Real Madrid. Six days after the 0-1 in the Spanish capital, Sergio Ramos with a double header strike (16', 20') and Cristiano Ronaldo (34', 89') destroyed Munich's hopes in front of 68,000 at the sold-out Arena. Bayern took note of the coach who had done this to them: Carlo Ancelotti became Guardiola's successor in 2016.
