Atletico Madrid 0-1 Barcelona: Yamal's classy assist

Yamal shines with an assist.

In contrast to their brilliant performance in the first leg, Atletico Madrid were completely outclassed when they returned home. In the first half, coach Diego Simeone's team only had 31% possession and allowed Barcelona to comfortably shoot at the goal 10 times.

Lamine Yamal continuously stirred up the home team's right flank, before leaving a strong impression with a through ball that tore through Atletico's defense, creating conditions for Ferran Torres to score the opening goal in the 25th minute.

During the 45 minutes, Atletico Madrid only had one chance, which was Robin Le Normand's high header in the 34th minute. However, the ball went wide of the visitors' goal.

In the second half, Atletico Madrid rose strongly. Alexander Sorloth entered the field and caused many difficulties for Barcelona's defense with his impressive running ability. In the 52nd minute, the Norwegian striker made coach Simeone regret when he missed the opportunity to face the goalkeeper. In the 69th minute, Sorloth put the ball into the away team's net and celebrated wildly. However, the semi-automatic offside technology extinguished the joy of the home fans.

The winner of this match will face Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final on April 26.
