El Atleti es como un balón, ese trozo de cuero lleno de golpes que siempre corre hacia delante. Su meta es la red, y da igual qué se entrometa, qué despiste. El Teatro de los Sueños, las piernas rivales, las dudas o los Cristianos Ronaldos. Siempre llega. Es su destino. El de un Atleti que volvió a hacerlo fútbol para alcanzar los cuartos de final de esta Champions ante el United.
MANCHESTER UNITED 0 — ATLÉTICO 1
A first-half header from Renan Lodi was enough to take Atletico Madrid into the last eight of the Champions League against a Manchester United side who played well enough but ultimately lacked a killer instinct at both ends of the pitch. They did not look like potential winners of the trophy, but no side will fancy facing them in the next round. United were the better side in an entertaining first half and should have taken the lead through Anthony Elanga, but his shot hit Jan Oblak on the head.
Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone was struck by various objects from the crowd following his side's victory over Manchester United on Tuesday.
Manchester City are in the hat for the Champions League quarter-final draw and will discover their upcoming opponents this week.

Manchester United’s season is close to finished and it is not yet April. The pressure is growing on Ralf Rangnick. Of course, it would now take something really disastrous to unseat the interim coach before the end of the season, but we can be almost certain that the German does not have enough time to convince the board that he deserves to be kept on in the summer.
Five years and counting. Manchester United have officially entered their most unsuccessful period since the fallow years following their first European Cup in 1968.
