Atletico Madrid progressed through to the Champions League quarter-finals with a 7-5 aggregate win, despite losing 3-2 to Tottenham in Wednesday's second leg.

Barcelona await in the next round for Diego Simeone's side, who twice came from behind at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before holding on for the victory across two legs.

Trailing 5-2 from their first-leg thrashing, Spurs almost found themselves further behind before an offside flag denied Ademola Lookman from Giuliano Simeone's cross after just six minutes.

Mathys Tel twice tested Juan Musso in response before the Frenchman delivered a beautiful delivery for Randal Kolo Muani to open the scoring with a deft header on the half-hour mark.

Musso produced another two impressive stops to thwart Tel, before Julian Alvarez's deflected strike kissed the woodwork down the other end, and Guglielmo Vicario expertly kept out Simeone's half-volley.

Alvarez stunted Spurs' hopes of a comeback when he smashed into the top-left corner after Lookman led a speedy 47th-minute counter, but Xavi Simons responded with a gorgeous strike from outside the box just five minutes later.

A stunning stretch denied Pedro Porro's trivela effort after the hour, though Vicario had to be alert twice to keep Alvarez out before the Atleti forward's corner was thumped in by David Hancko with 15 minutes remaining.

Jose Maria Gimenez's mindless lunge on Simons then allowed Spurs to at least secure victory in this clash, with the Dutchman sweeping his 90th-minute penalty into the bottom-left corner for a mere consolation.

Data Debrief: Task too far for Spurs

This was always going to be a tough ask for Spurs, given that only four teams of the 51 previous instances had progressed from a Champions League knockout tie when losing the first leg by three or more goals.

But Tel's enthusiasm gave them hope before a fine header from Kolo Muani, who has six goal involvements in five starts in this competition for Spurs (four goals, two assists).

Igor Tudor's side managed to create 2.45 expected goals (xG) from 18 shots, 11 of which were on target, while Atleti produced 1.04 from 18 attempts of their own.

However, Atletico had their own star man. Alvarez is just the fourth player to score and assist in both legs of a Champions League knockout tie (two goals, one assist in first leg; one goal, one assist in second leg).

He is in fine company, too, with Alessandro Del Piero (1997-98 semi-final, Juventus vs Monaco), Kaka (2011-12 quarter-final, Real Madrid vs APOEL) and Robert Lewandowski (2019-20 last 16, Bayern Munich vs Chelsea).
