Champions League semi-finals after
drawing city rivals Atletico Madrid.
Holders Real Madrid will face city rivals Atletico
Madrid in the last four of the Champions League, in
a repeat of last season's final, with Juventus
paired against Monaco in the other semi.
Zinedine Zidane's men defeated their LaLiga rivals
in a dramatic penalty shootout to clinch an 11th
triumph in Europe's premier competition.

while Los Blancos also beat Diego Simeone's men
in the quarter-finals of the 2014-15 competition.
Madrid overcame Bayern Munich 6-3 on aggregate
to reach the semi-finals after a dramatic second
leg at the Santiago Bernabeu that went to extra-
time, while Atleti progressed by beating Leicester
City.
