Atletico Madrid have done it once again. After defeating Barcelona in the quarter-finals, they have now dumped Bayern Munich out of the competition as well. Diego Simeone has led his team to their second Champions League final in three years, and he’s done it by beating the best teams in the world.
Here’s how twitter reacted to the result:
Simeone replaced Costa, Arda, Courtois, Miranda and Knocked Barcelona and Bayern out of CL with Torres as his main striker.What a man.

Griezmann's too good for a team like Atletico Madrid. Should be at one of the big clubs where he can challenge for major honours.Oh...

Gritty, determined, well organised and ruthlessly efficient. So much to admire about Simeone and Atletico Madrid. What a team.

I just text Brendan Rodgers to say how highly I regarded Diego Simeone as a manager. He's not replied though.
