FC Bayern Munich is fighting against FC Villarreal for a place in the Champions League semi-finals.
More cash prizes await the winner.
Munich - It crackles!
On Tuesday, FC Bayern Munich * fights for entry into the Champions League * semifinals.
FC Villarreal will make an appearance at the Allianz Arena after the Spaniards won the first leg 1-0.
So the German record champions have to catch up if they want to advance to the next round!
After all: The away goal rule is passé, Bayern would not be out automatically with a 2: 1 or 3: 2 after 90 minutes.
Instead, since this season it has gone into extra time and, in extreme cases, even penalties.
But of course the Munich team want to make everything clear in regular time.
Ten football legends are sure that FC Bayern will progress.
FC Bayern Munich: Advance against FC Villarreal brings 12.5 million euros
Reaching the semi-finals would not only be a goal worth striving for from a sporting point of view.
The semi-finals would also be worthwhile financially for the Reds.
A further 12.5 million euros from the bonus pot of the European Football Union would be flushed into the Munich coffers.
For the bosses, these funds would be real lucky charms, after all, there are some prominent contract negotiations that require further financial leeway.
Maybe you can still persuade your top striker to sign a new contract?
Recently there have been reports that Robert Lewandowski has decided to move to FC Barcelona.

FC Bayern Munich: high income in the Champions League - sold-out stadiums possible again
The winner of the final on May 28th in the Stade de France in Paris collects another 20 million euros.
The losing finalist receives 15.5 million.
A real rain of money that would be so important for Bayern.
After the Corona requirements have been lifted, higher viewer income is possible again in the home games.
The second leg against Villarreal can be played in the Allianz Arena in front of 70,000 spectators.
A possible semi-final against Liverpool would also sell out quickly.
Funds that Bayern have completely lacked in the past two years.
The record champions are expected to generate around four million euros for each sold-out home game.
Investments like the transfer of Ryan Gravenberch are suddenly easier to manage again.
