With just 11 minutes of the Champions League semi-final clash between Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich at the Vicente Calderon, Saúl Ñíguez produced a moment of magic to open the scoring for the hosts.
Picking up the ball deep in tbe opposition half, the versatile 21-year-old jinked his way into the box (past three Bayern players) before deftly curling the ball into the far corner of Manuel Neuer’s net.
Magnificent….
