Bayern Munich and Real Madrid played out a 2-2 draw in the Champions League semifinal first leg at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night.

It was a game of strange momentum flips, sloppy fouls for penalties and both teams keeping their hopes of European glory alive. Some players did more than others to make that dream a reality, while others actively seemed to halt it.

Here are your winners and losers...

Winner: Toni Kroos

Bayern fans wasted their time booing former midfielder Toni Kroos.

Jeered from the off, the German swept a veil of hush over the Allianz Arena with a terrific defense-splitting pass to assist Vinicius Junior for the opener.

Bayern huffed and puffed in the opening 20 minutes, but once the energy dipped, Kroos took control of possession and got Carlo Ancelotti's men ticking.

He even appeared to show Vini Jr. where to run ahead of playing the pass for the opener, a ball that left Kim Minjae exposed and angry with his teammates. The reaction of Kroos' colleagues said it all; Vini Jr bowed, and others lifted him aloft.

When Madrid capitulated, he remained calm, sweeping long passes accurately forward and always making himself available to receive a pass. A top display that his teammates couldn't replicate.

Loser: Lucas Vázquez

This could easily be a 'Winner' slide for Jamal Musiala, who tormented Lucas Vázquez in the second half.

The German's precise dribbling and agility ran Vázquez silly after Leroy Sane's equalizer, forcing the Spaniard into a sloppy foul to set up Harry Kane's penalty for Bayern's second.

Vázquez has been a useful servant for Ancelotti this season and has adapted well from a traditional winger's position into the right-back role.

But it's games like this–against world-class opponents where one mistake can be punished–that highlight his lack of experience. Dani Carvajal will be welcomed back from suspension with open arms for the second leg.

Winner: Konrad Laimer

It's fair to say Konrad Laimer is not the most exciting name across these teams, especially when lining up against Jude Bellingham.

The versatile Austrian had an absolute belter in midfield, though. He just seemed to be everywhere, summed up just after Bayern's second, when he sprinted towards Bellingham who was about to unleash a shot on goal from the edge of the box.

Laimer even got himself an assist, popping the ball to Leroy Sané, whose howitzer gave Andriy Lunin absolutely no chance in goal.

Okay, Laimer didn't really set up the goal, but that's the type of luck you deserve when you're giving everything against the best of the best.

Loser: Kim Min-jae

People who don't watch Bayern often may have wondered why Kim has been a rotational figure in Thomas Tuchel's team. He showed exactly why on Tuesday after Matthijs De Ligt's injury forced him into the starting lineup.

The South Korean just kept trying to do too much. He was overaggressive at the wrong times, stepping too close to his mark before failing to regain the ball. He was either easily bypassed and left huge space in behind or fouled in a dangerous position like he did for the penalty that led to Vinicius' equalizer.

It's not good enough from the centreback who was Serie A's best for champions Napoli last season. Like Madrid needing Carvajal back, Tuchel will be desperate for De Ligt to make the trip to Spain next week.
