It was a crazy match that has stayed in all heads, on the other side of the Pyrenees. A month ago, the Barça
And Atlético had left on a parity score after a rain of goals and a incredible scenario (4-4). A first round which had symbolized the spirit of resilience of the Colchoneros. Already eliminated in penalties against the other giant of Spain, Real, in the Champions League, Atlético has the means to worry this Barça and win a ticket for the final. The Griezmann-Alvarez duo will still be a determining factor.
The challenge will be immense for Diego Simeone and his men. Opposite, Barça looks like a European scarecrow this season. Carried by an exceptional offensive striking force, the Catalan club will still be able to count on its triggers, the talented Lamine Yamal, the Robert Lewandowski clinic and a raphinha at his “premium”. For each camp, the prospect of finding Real Madrid in the final will be an additional motivation lever. The decor is planted. Make way for the show.
The expected compos
Atlético de Madrid : Musso; Llorente, Gimenez, Lenglet, Reinildo; Simeone, Barrios, de Paul, Lino; Alvarez, Griezmann.
Barcelona : SZCZESNY; Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Gavi, Raphinha; Lewandowski
