Just four days after losing to Barcelona in La Liga, Atletico Madrid produced the perfect performance as they secured their first victory at the Camp Nou since 2006. Goals from Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth secured the win as they took a huge step towards reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League.
However, they will know there is still plenty of work to be done in this second leg, especially against a Barca attack that ran riot at the weekend as they secured a thumping 4-1 win over Espanyol. Ferran Torres, Lamine Yamal and Marcus Rashford were all on target as they moved nine points clear at the top of La Liga.
While Barca warmed up for this huge game with a comfortable win, Atletico slipped to a 2-1 defeat at Sevilla. Diego Simeone’s side may have come up short, but it was clear the experienced Argentine had one eye on the second leg as he rested 10 players.
That extra few days' rest may prove vital as Atletico will hope to withstand an early storm and then show the same kind of ruthlessness they showed in the first leg, scoring from two of their three shots on target.
