The UEFA Champions League semifinals are about to get underway.
Atletico Madrid and Chelsea will square off in the first leg of their semifinals series at Vicente Calderon Stadium on Tuesday (2:45pm ET, Fox Deportes/Fox Soccer 2Go), and both sides will be looking to set the tone in what is sure to be a tight pair of matches between two physical and defensively-stout clubs.
The battle of managers is also an intriguing one. Diego Simeone has done a bang-up job leading Atletico Madrid to an undefeated record in this Champions League competition, but his side will go up against the very experienced Jose Mourinho and a Blues side that has plenty of experience going through this part of the competition in recent years.
If you will be watching today’s match, please feel free to leave your thoughts, some play-by-play and analysis in the comments section below.
Enjoy the action.
