Bayern Munich reach the semi-finals of the Champions League by playing out a 0-0 draw with Sevilla in their quarter-final second leg to progress 2-1 on aggregate.

Bayern Munich have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League by playing out a goalless draw with Sevilla in their quarter-final second leg to progress 2-1 on aggregate.

The hosts began brightly as James Rodriguez, Arjen Robben and Robert Lewandowski all weighed in with early efforts, the latter heading on target and forcing a save from David Soria.

Sevilla's main opening contributions to the game were two bookings within the first 11 minutes, before Pablo Sarabia rifled an effort high over Sven Ulreich's crossbar.

Both sides traded blows throughout the first half, with Bayern's Joshua Kimmich and Mats Hummels and Sevilla's Sergio Escudero all coming especially close, but neither could open the scoring by the break.

After the restart, Jupp Heynckes's charges stepped up their search for a goal which would give them an extra cushion, Lewandowski rustling the side-netting with a 49th-minute header.

Thomas Muller then forced a save from Soria on 54 minutes, while at the other end, Joaquin Correa headed against the woodwork and Ever Banega fired just wide of the post from 25 yards on the hour.

Bayern grew more and more frustrated as the game went on, Robben spurning a number of opportunities in the second half.

Sevilla, however, could not capitalise on their opponents' wastefulness and ended up finishing the game with 10 men after Correa saw red in injury time for a late challenge on Javi Martinez.

The Bundesliga giants had little problem seeing the game out and, thanks to their 2-1 first-leg win, were able to join Liverpool, Roma and Real Madrid in the final four of the competition.

BAYERN MUNICH (4-1-4-1): Ulreich; Kimmich, Boateng, Hummels, Rafinha (Sule 87'); Martinez; Robben, Muller, Rodriguez, Ribery (Alcantara 71'); Lewandowski (Wagner 77')

SEVILLA (4-2-3-1): Soria; Navas, Mercado, Lenglet, Escudero; Nzonzi, Banega; Sarabia (Ramirez 70'), Vazquez (Nolito 81'), Correa; Ben Yedder (Muriel 65')
