For Atletico Madrid, this defeat marks the end of their hopes for silverware this season, with their last realistic chance to win a trophy being eliminated after their Champions League exit to Real Madrid. Diego Simeone’s side has also seen their title challenge fade, falling behind in the La Liga race over the past few weeks.
Barcelona, however, remain in the hunt for a treble. They lead the La Liga table by three points and will face Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League quarter-finals later this month.
