In the shootout, Julian Alvarez's penalty was ruled out by VAR despite him scoring as it was said that he touched the ball twice during kicking the ball and so the goal will not count. The incident created massive controversy as Real Madrid ended up winning in the shootout and the goal not counting being one of the major reasons. Atletico Madrid 1(2) - 0(4) Real Madrid UEFA Champions League 2024-25: Defending Champions Clinch Madrid Derby in UCL, Set To Face Arsenal in Quarterfinals.
