Barcelona is definitely the strongest opponent in this tournament, so it will not be easy to win against them. But Atletico Madrid made that difficult task easy. They were leading by two goals from the first half to the 25th minute of the second half. Of course, there was a lot of excitement among the Atletico Madrid fans. Because that situation was a possibility for the team to win, but when Robert Lewandowski scored a goal in the 72nd minute, the situation started to change. When Ferran Torres' goal in the 78th minute brought the team to the equalizer, the dream of the Madrid fans seemed to be shattered. Two more goals in extra time in the match completely shattered their hopes. Although they showed a good performance at the beginning, it lost it at the end. The team has been lagging behind by losing two matches in a row.
What is clear is that Atletico Madrid fans are disappointed because no matter what after you are 2 goals ahead but are unable to maintain it until the end and actually think the match will be won, that's where Barcelona found the perfect gap to turn things around. Barcelona deserved to win, based on the comparison of statistics for more than 90 minutes we can measure that Hansi Flick came well prepared to the opponent home. The two will meet again in the Copa del Rey to compete for a place in the final, with an aggregate of 4-4 and the second leg again taking place at the same venue. This is truly a serious evaluation for Simeone and his troops.
