Arsenal take on Atlético Madrid in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal on Tuesday. The Gunners will look at last week’s 1-1 draw as a major advantage, as they now get to play the next 90 minutes in front of their home crowd at the Emirates Stadium.
With a place in the final at Budapest on the line, both sides are hoping for a long-awaited return to European soccer’s biggest stage. Arsenal haven’t featured in a UCL final since 2006, while Atlético Madrid’s last appearance came in 2016. Both fell short on those occasions, and this afternoon is yet another chance to move one step closer to glory. Here's how to tune in.
