Atletico Madrid Take Copa Del Rey Revenge Over Real Madrid

With Real Madrid: Atletico Madrid took revenge for last week's semifinal defeat in the Spanish Supercup, reaching the Copa del Rey quarterfinals with a 4-2 home win over Real Madrid.

Just as in Saudi Arabia last week, the two teams produced another 120 monumental minutes of football, but this time goals in extra-time from Antoine Griezmann and Rodrigo Riquelme tilted the balance to Atletico's way in front of a packed Metropolitano Stadium on Thursday, reports Xinhua.

The first half was sandwiched by two completely different actions from Atletico keeper Jan Oblak, who in the 20th minute made a brilliant double save to deny Rodrygo and then Vinicius Jr as his teammates asked for offside.
