Atletico Madrid and Man City take two goal leads into their second legs after two cricket scores against Bayer Leverkusen and Monaco respectively.

Atletico Madrid remains on course to reach a third Champions League Final in the past four years after beating Bayer Leverkusen by 4-2 at the BayArena.

Last season’s runners-up went into the match as the +145 favourites to win the tie and opened the scoring with a peach of a goal from Saul Niguez who curled a left-foot shot past the Leverkusen keeper to score his fifth goal of the season.

The Frenchman Kevin Gameiro was a royal pain in the ass for the Germans all night, and it was his break, turn and set up that allowed Antoine Griezmann to send the Spaniards into the break with a two-goal lead scoring his 14th Champions League goal in the 25th minute.
