Atletico Madrid and Barcelona provided some top-notch entertainment in the Spanish capital.

The visitors erased Atleti's two-goal advantage from the opening leg of their Champions League quarterfinal tie in under 24 minutes on Tuesday thanks to goals from Lamine Yamal (following a wretched Clement Lenglet error) and Ferran Torres. But, just when it seemed Barcelona were strolling toward a successful "remontada" mission, Ademola Lookman struck just after the half-hour mark.
