Confirmed Champions League semi-final line-up

The Champions League semi‑finals for the 2025–26 season are now confirmed after an intense round of quarter‑finals. Atlético Madrid became the first team to progress, eliminating Barcelona with a 2–0 win at the Camp Nou before sealing the tie at the Metropolitano despite a brief Barça comeback. Ten years after their last final appearance, Atlético now face Arsenal, who advanced by edging Sporting Lisbon thanks to Kai Havertz’s first‑leg goal and a goalless draw in London.

On the other side of the bracket, reigning champions Paris Saint‑Germain continued their strong form, defeating Liverpool 4–0 on aggregate to move within three matches of retaining the title. Bayern Munich await them after overcoming Real Madrid with a 2–1 victory in Spain and a composed performance in Munich. PSG host Bayern on April twenty‑eighth, while Atlético welcome Arsenal on April twenty‑ninth, with the return legs scheduled for May fifth and sixth.
