Show Notes
On Wednesday night Atletico Madrid found a new way to suffer Champions League heartbreak at the hands of Real Madrid.
Diego Simeone's side were knocked out courtesy of penalties after Julian Alvarez had his effort rule out for a 'two-touch' kick.
From VAR, to penalty shootouts, to near misses, Atleti have once again failed to find a way past their neighbours.
So why is there always something stopping Simeone’s and his team from getting over the line in this competition?
Adam Leventhal is joined by The Athletic's Tomas Hill Lopez-Menchero and Phil Hay to reflect on a chaotic night at the Metropolitano, discuss Atleti's 'El Pupas' curse and analyse how Simeone lifts his side for the La Liga title run-in.
