Barcelona FC has been sent out of Champions League. The team suffered a shock Champions League exit as Antoine Griezmann's double sent Atletico Madrid into the semi-finals.
Barca arrived in Spain's capital with a 2-1 advantage from the first leg but poor defending allowed the unmarked Griezmann to power home Saul's cross.
Saul headed against the bar as Barca toiled before Griezmann scored a late penalty after Andres Iniesta handled.
Barca were a shadow of the team that conquered Europe so convincingly last season and have now lost three of the last four games in all competitions.
In addition, Lionel Messi failed to score for the fifth game in a row for his club, and Neymar and Luis Suarez were frustrated by excellent home defending.
