""I've watched Messi's goal against Liverpool here several times, but I wasn't entirely sure it was going into that exact corner. Once you strike the ball, you realise it, and even before I kicked, I was already quite certain.""

Julián Álvarez scored a stunning free kick against Barcelona, inspired by Lionel Messi's previous goal at Camp Nou. This goal gave Atlético Madrid a 2-0 lead in the Champions League quarterfinal. Álvarez expressed confidence in his shot despite earlier practice failures. His performance increased interest from clubs like Barcelona and Arsenal, but Atlético's president emphasized that Álvarez will remain until he decides otherwise, as he is under contract until June 2030.
