Barcelona were left with a player less in the 44th minute, after Pau Cubarsi received a red card. Atletico used the player more to gain a big lead ahead of the return leg at the Wanda Metropolitano next week.
The scorers in last night’s match were Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth.
Before the game, Barcelona fans stoned the Atlético bus, and the Madrid club posted photos of the broken windows on social media. “Hey NASA, we’ve got photos from the dark side of the moon,” Atlético said in a post.

Lately, the pattern of violence has been repeated when it comes to these two teams. Barcelona fans smashed the Atlético bus a month ago, when the two teams met in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.
