The Madrid Derby delivered once again! Real Madrid took the first leg in the Champions League Round of 16, but with Atlético Madrid only down a goal, the tie is far from over. The Morning Footy crew breaks down where Diego Simeone got it wrong, how Brahim Díaz became the unexpected hero, and what this result means for the second leg. Then, it’s time for player ratings! Fede Valverde earns unanimous praise, but Julián Álvarez’s performance sparks a heated debate.

Morning Footy is available for free on the Audacy app as well as Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
