Asensio made an instant impact to put Real Madrid ahead
As he so often has this season in the Champions League, Zinedine Zidane turned to Marco Asensio when things weren't going well on Wednesday night and once again the playmaker delivered.
'Los Blancos' were fortunate to be level at half-time of their clash with Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, with Marcelo's sweet strike just before half-time cancelling out Josh Kimmich's opener.
With Real largely underwhelming in the opening 45, Zidane introduced Asensio at the break and he made a huge impact on the tie.
With 57 minutes gone, Rafinha passed the ball straight to the former Real Mallorca man after a Bayern corner was cleared.
Asensio immediately set Lucas Vazquez away and he drew Rafinha across before returning the ball to Asensio to fire across Sven Ulreich in the home goal and into the far corner to give the visitors the lead.
