A dramatic penalty shootout followed. Kylian Mbappe and Alexander Sorloth both scored from the first two kicks. Jude Bellingham and Julian Alvarez also converted, but the Argentine's effort was ruled out as the shot hit both of his legs.
Fede Valverde and Angel Correa then found the back of the net. Atleti needed a save and Jan Oblak delivered, denying Lucas Vazquez. Los Rojiblancos, though, failed to capitalize on that as Marcos Llorente could only hit the woodwork.
Antonio Rudiger scored to record a 4-2 penalty shootout win for Carlo Ancelotti's side and book their slot in the semi-final of the competition.
