The first leg of the Champions League semi-final between Atletico Madrid and Arsenal at the Metropolitano ended in a 1-1 draw, in a thrilling match until the end. The challenge remains completely open for the second leg to be played at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal closes the first half with a lead over Atletico at the "Metropolitano", in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
In the 43rd minute, David Hancko (Atletico Madrid) intervenes harshly inside the area and the referee does not hesitate: he awards a penalty to Arsenal, a golden opportunity to take the lead.
Viktor Gyökeres takes over the execution and makes no mistake. The Arsenal striker sends the ball to the left side of the goal, beating Jan Oblak, who had predicted the direction but failed to stop the ball.
With this goal, Arsenal go into the break with a minimal but very important lead in a difficult transfer like the one in Madrid. Atletico, on the other hand, will look to react in the second half, increasing the pressure and offensive intensity to overturn the result.
The second half started better for Atletico, who tied the score with Alvarez's goal, scored from a penalty, which was awarded by the VAR system, 1-1.
