Julian Nagelsmann’s team was hot and pushed forward in the early stages. The first Champions League quarter-finals of the club’s history should be something special. Halstenberg already had the first chance to lead in the fourth minute. Atletico came into the game better with continuous playing time and had the first opportunity to score 1-0 with a Savic header (10th). After a small period of pressure by the Spaniards, the encounter flattened and opportunities were lacking. In the last moves of the first half, Laimer headed too inaccurately from a short distance (41st) and shortly afterwards Oblak had to stretch himself correctly against Upamecano to avoid the gap lag (45th +3). After the change of sides, it took only five minutes to lead the bulls 1-0 through Dani Olmo’s header (50th). The Rojiblancos then pushed the equaliser, but were repeatedly stopped by the strong Upamecano. Only a transformed foul penalty by Joao Felix to 1-1 brought Madrid back into the game (71st). After that RB was briefly shocked, but nothing came of Atletico either. In the final phase, Leipzig managed the Lucky Punch with a 2-1 victory goal by T. Adams (88.).
The Nagelsmann-Elf participated in the Champions League in Group G, winning 11 points ahead of Olympique Lyon (8), Benfica Lisbon (7) and Zenit St. Petersburg (7).

On the 2nd day of the match, the Red Bull Arena suffered a 0-2 home defeat against Lyon. Since then, RB has been unbeaten (seven games) and won five wins during this period. Since the knockout round, the Tottenham Hotspur (1:0, 3:0) and now Atletico Madrid have eliminated two real calibers.
With 16 goals in the king class, the Leipzig offensive belongs to the upper third. Timo Werner, Marcel Sabitzer and Emil Forsberg scored a total of 12 stalls with four goals each.
Ibrahima Konate is still injured and will be the only Leipzig player unable to play in the semi-final against Saint Germain.
