Atlético Madrid and Arsenal drew 1-1 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal on April 29, 2026, in Madrid. Viktor Gyökeres opened the scoring with a penalty in the 44th minute for Arsenal, before Julián Álvarez equalized from the spot in the 56th minute for Atlético. Arsenal were denied a potential winning penalty late in the game after referee Danny Makkelie overturned the decision following a VAR review of a foul by Dávid Hancko on Eberechi Eze.
