Julian Nagelsmann's side levelled the tie on 52 minutes via the familiar route of a Robert Lewandowski strike.
In hunting a winner, however, Bayern were caught on the break late on.
Lo Celso's clever through ball found Gerard Moreno, with the forward showing great composure to slip a square pass to Samuel Chukwueze.
The Nigerian subsequently hit the ball into the ground, deceiving Manuel Neuer as it kicked up and over him.
Chukwueze's strike silenced the expectant Allianz Arena, with his team-mates bounding towards him to celebrate.
While Emery hugged his assistant in pure glee.

"They made the mistake today of not killing us off and we took advantage of that. What this team has done is great, we deserved to go through.
"We knew we were going to suffer in defence, but we were going to have our chances and, in the end, Chukwueze was able to make the most of it."
