Paris Saint-Germain and Atlético Madrid secured their places in the Champions League semi-finals by eliminating Liverpool and a Barcelona side that showed a generous but insufficient impact, respectively.
Both the French side, who also won 2-0 at Anfield thanks to a Dembélé brace, and the Colchoneros managed to hold on to the lead (a clear 2-0 for each) they had gained in the first leg. Simeone's side were particularly in danger of being overtaken by a comeback, falling two goals behind early on, but former Atalanta player Lookman restored the lead on aggregate.
In the end, at the Metropolitano, Yamal and his teammates won 2-1, a result that was not enough to qualify.
The European champions will face the winner of Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid, while Atlético will face either Arsenal or Sporting Lisbon . The teams will play tonight at 9 p.m.
