Juventus had it all to do when they visited Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

They gave themselves a decent shot when Paul Pogba took advantage of a rare error by Manuel Neuer in the first half:

And after an extraordinary run by Alvaro Morata, Juan Cuadrado put them two goals up in the tie:

It was all looking rosy as twice Morata went close in the second half:

But then Robert Lewandowski gave Bayern hope:

Sure enough, Thomas Muller ensured a seesaw tie would go into an extra half-hour with a stoppage-time header to square it at 2-2 on the night and 4-4 on aggregate:

It had been a truly brilliant two legs of football:

Thiago and Kingsley Coman completed the comeback with two goals in two minutes in the second half of extra time:

Pep Guardiola fans re-emerged:

And 4-2 it finished on the night—Bayern's incredible comeback keeping Guardiola's Munich dream alive and ensuring the Bavarians are in Friday's quarter-final draw.

What. A. Game.
