Barcelona's campaign to become the first team to repeat as winners of the Champions League is over.
For the second time in three seasons, Barca was bested by a savvier Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinals. Luis Suarez's two goals had given the Catalans a 2-1, come-from-behind victory in the first leg at home last week. But on Wednesday, Antoine Griezmann's first-half header and late penalty undid all that and shattered Barcelona's hopes of repeating its Champions League-La Liga-Copa del Rey treble. In late dramatics, Barca was denied a penalty that might have tied up the whole affair.
