# Soccer: Arsenal and Atlético Madrid played to a 1-1 draw in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal in Madrid. Viktor Gyökeres’ first-half penalty gave the Gunners the lead. Atletico responded through Julian Alvarez’s penalty. Arsenal could have taken the lead again in the 78th minute after referee Danny Makkelie awarded a penalty when David Hancko caught Eberechi Eze. However, the decision was overturned following a video assistant referee check, which deemed the contact insufficient. The winner will face Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain in the final.
