The 1/8 final match at Atletico’s home ground concluded in extra time with a scoreline of 4-2 in favor of the hosts. Notably, the “mattress makers” took the lead twice in regular time, courtesy of goals from Samuel Lino (39th minute) and Alvaro Morata (57th), but Real managed to level the score on both occasions with an own goal by Jan Oblak (45+1) and a goal by Joselu (82nd).
Extra time witnessed the decisive contributions of Antoine Griezmann (100th) and Rodrigo Riquelme (119th), sealing Real’s fate in the competition. The defending champions from 2023 bid farewell to the trophy they clinched the previous year, while Atletico progresses further in their quest. It’s worth mentioning that in the recent edition of the Spanish Super Cup held in Saudi Arabia, Real triumphed over Atletico in the semi-finals with a scoreline of 5-3.
