The Champions League Round of 16 clash between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid is heading into extra time after an intense battle at the Metropolitano Stadium.

Real Madrid carried a one-goal advantage into this second leg after securing victory at the Bernabeu. However, their lead lasted just 27 seconds tonight as Conor Gallagher struck early, netting his first-ever European goal to level the aggregate score at 2-2.

A golden opportunity arrived for Vinicius Junior to restore Madrid’s lead from the penalty spot, but the Brazilian star shockingly blasted his effort over the crossbar—his first-ever penalty miss for the club in open play.

This marks the first time since the 2013-14 season that Real Madrid have missed two penalties in a single Champions League campaign, excluding shootouts.

With extra time underway, the battle intensifies. Will either side find a decisive goal, or are we heading towards a dramatic penalty shootout? The winner of this thrilling encounter will face Arsenal in the quarter-finals.

Stay tuned for the final twist in this epic showdown!
