Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres scored in a stunning opening spell as Barcelona levelled their Champions League quarter-final with Atletico Madrid inside 25 minutes.
Atletico were superb last week to open up a 2-0 lead on the road but had no answer to Hansi Flick’s side early on in Madrid.
Yamal, still only 18, almost scored inside 35 seconds and then did run clear to poke home in the fourth minute.
And former Manchester City man Torres then lashed in a briilliant second to level the aggregate scores.
Diego Simeone’s side had it all to do but rallied to pick out Ademola Lookman who buried and made it 3-2 on aggregate.
The winners of the tie will face Arsenal or Sporting in the semi-finals. Those teams meet in London on Wednesday (20:00 BST), with the Gunners 1-0 ahead from the first leg.
