Real Madrid and Bayern Munich drew 2-2 in the first leg at Allianz Arena, and the action now shifts to the Spanish capital for the final 90 minutes of the tie. One of the standouts for the match was Toni Kroos, who assisted on the opening goal.
After the match, Kroos spoke to reporters, and he received one question regarding Kylian Mbappé in the context of having another star player to play with now that Jude Bellingham and Vinícius Jr. are performing at an elite level.
“It’s in the future,” Kroos told reporters. “I don’t know if they’re going to play together for the return leg against Bayern, so that’s not my subject (laughs).”
Journalist: "Playing with Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham and Vinícius?"

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti spoke postgame and noted who he would like to see in the final at Wembley Stadium should his squad advance past Bayern Munich.
It seems that the La Liga team will embrace the chaos that will come with playing PSG in a Champions League final. Should these two sides meet at Wembley Stadium, the focus will likely be on Mbappé’s pending arrival to the Spanish capital.
