In the end, the Atletico Madrid missed out on the semi-finals of the Champions League after drawing 0-0 in the Wanda Metropolitano against him Manchester City. A match in which the colchoneros managed to put the English team on the ropes with great minutes of play.

For this reason, when the game ended, the vast majority of fans present in the fiefdom of the Luis Aragones Avenue they stayed on the field to applaud the players. The players stood applauding and thanking the stands of the stadium. First they went to the north end, then to one of the stands and then to the south end just before retiring to the locker room tunnel.

“Proud of our players” was one of the chants that could be heard from the stands of the Wanda Metropolitano just when the footballers were thanking the players for their support.

Again the communion between the stands and the field was one of the main weapons of the Atletico Madrid. A magical night of Champions in which only a comeback was missing.
