Why is there also a final draw?

The first leg of the semi-finals will take place on May 4 with the return leg a week later on May 11.

Which are the teams that have reached the semi-final stage? Juventus knocked out Barcelona, Monaco got rid of Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid eliminated Bayern Munich and Leicester City's Cinderella run ended at the hands of Atletico Madrid. While Real edged past the German champions when the match rolled into extra time, riding on a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick in a rather controversial match which framed around certain alleged referee blunders. On the other hand, the Red and Whites had a rather narrow escape at King Power stadium, with a strong defensive line-up proving to be their armour against the attacking Foxes.

Oh and elsewhere it's just the best tactical team left in Juventus against Monaco's kids.

When will the Champions League semi-finals take place? The side drawn first in each tie will play the first leg at home.
