The Digest:
Barcelona face Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano, needing to score at least twice without conceding to overturn a 2-0 first-leg deficit. Teenager Lamine Yamal has called out Diego Simeone's defence, daring them to face him. He drew inspiration from LeBron James' 2016 NBA comeback and Neymar's iconic 2017 PSG magic.
