An absolute dream start for Diego Simeone's men.
Just 10 minutes into the Champions League semi-final between Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich, the deadlock was broken by Spanish midfielder Saul Niguez, and immediately set the tone for a cracking European tie.
Saul is a player who has been regularly linked with a move away from Atleti, with Man United being a club routinely linked, but if he is to leave this summer he has just added another zero to his potential transfer fee with a magnificent goal.
What a goal!
He picked that up near the centre circle and carried it all the way. A magnificent start to what should be a magnificent battle, and already a far superior game to Man City vs Real Madrid last night.
