Leicester City's Champions League journey is on its last legs after Atletico Madrid scored a valuable away goal at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday.
Saul Niguez grabbed his third, and most important, goal of Atletico's European campaign when he got on the end of Filipe Luis' cross into the box and delivered a powerful header beyond Kasper Schmeichel to give the visiting side a 2-0 aggregate advantage.
Saul Ñíguez scores Atlético's 100th goal in #UCL. Esnáider was 1st scorer, in 4-0 win v Steaua, 11 Sep '96, when Simeone also scored 2.
