This earlier triumph established a significant advantage for the Spanish side. Xavi Simons and Kolo Muani contributed goals for Tottenham, showcasing their attacking prowess.
Conversely, Julian Alvarez and Hancko successfully netted for the team managed by Diego Simeone. Despite Tottenham’s impressive performance, the aggregate score remained unfavorable. Consequently, Atletico Madrid will now face Barcelona in the quarter-final round.
