Good evening and welcome to LIVE coverage of the Champions League quarter-final second leg between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. Barcelona hold a 2-1 lead from the first leg, but know a 1-0 defeat at the Vicente Calderon could see their hopes dashed of becoming the first team to win back-to-back Champions League titles since the inception of the tournament in 1992.

    STAT: Messi has not scored in his last six CL quarterfinal appearances, since scoring at PSG in the 2012/2013 quarterfinals (2 April 2013).
    12'
    A very cagey start it must be said by both sides. Ter Stegen dashes back to his goal to play the ball as Enrique decides to take a slug of water.
    11'
    Diego Simeone telling his side to keep it calm as Luis Enrique looks unperturbed at the side of his pitch with his hands in his pockets.

    STAT: Lionel Messi (499) is one short of scoring his 500th senior career goal for club and country. On 1 May 2005, he scored his first competitive goal in Barcelona's 2-0 home win over Albacete at Camp Nou.
    9'
    Carrasco drills the ball across the face of the visiting goal, but no takers on hand to convert for Atletico. Wonder if Torres would have made a difference there.
    8'
    Barcelona struggling to get any fluency into their play so far as Mascherano sees a shot charged down by the home team. Solid block by Gabi.
    7'
    Atlético Madrid
    Header at the Barca goal by Griezmann, but solid piece of goalkeeping by Ter Stegen. Easy take in the end. Positioning was spot on there.
    6'
    Messi makes a run down a flank out wide, but he is well chased by Luis who brings the ball away for the home team.
    5'
    STAT: Messi has failed to score a single goal in his last four appearances for Barcelona in all competitions. He can remain goalless in five competitive matches in a row for the first time since April 2010.
    4'
    The Vicente Calderon is bouncing in expectation as Carrasco drives a shot at goal, but straight into the arms of Ter Stegen.

    Early sniff at goal for Gabi, but he lifts the ball over the bar from 18 yards. Decent hit, but shot was always rising.
    2'
    Atletico are the only team over the past eight seasons who have denied Barcelona a place in the last four of the continent's premier club tournament.
    1'
    Atletico get the action off and running. Remember a 1-0 home win would be enough to see them into the last four of the tournament on away goals.

    "There's no time for apologies or excuses, we need results. It's not the time to sink low and think that we're on a horrible run," said Luis Enrique after back-to-back defeats in Spain to Real Madrid and Real Sociedad "There are reasons to be optimistic although the results have not been what we want."
