PSG knock Liverpool OUT of the Champions League | … CBS Sports Golazo
Atlético Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain qualified for the Champions League semi-finals after the quarter-final matches held on Wednesday. The Parisian footballers defeated Liverpool FC 2:0 at Anfield and advanced to the next round without difficulty. Ousmane Dembélé scored a brace, definitively cooling the hosts' hopes of advancing. However, Hugo Ekitiké's injury during the match was a heavy loss for the Anfield side. sport.sk ↗

Atlético Madrid also performed just as dominantly, eliminating Barcelona despite a 1:2 defeat in the return leg. Madrid advanced to the semi-finals thanks to better results across both matches, historically progressing among the four best teams in Europe's premier football competition. Barcelona quickly reduced the deficit in the opening minute of the return leg through Lamine Yamal, but Atlético ultimately held on and eliminated their opponent. SITA ↗

Barcelona was not helped by their complaint to UEFA over an allegedly incriminating handball in the first match. European football's governing body rejected the Catalan club's formal complaint just a few hours before the return leg. dennikn.sk ↗

PSG handled the home side with authority, though Luis Enrique in particular warned against underestimating the opponent. Atlético Madrid has previously played in the Champions League semi-finals or those of its predecessor, the European Cup, six times. The semi-final matches will take place in the coming weeks. teraz.sk ↗
