It was Georginio Wijnaldum who got Liverpool on the board thanks to a fine header just before the break.
Atletico, who were repeatedly indebted to the magnificent Jan Oblak in goal, often failed to get out of their own half whether by design or not and failed to create many notable chances.
However Liverpool were unable to find a way through in the first 90 minutes and it goes to extra-time despite Atletico thinking they had won it late on.
