Saul Niguez pulled off a sensational solo run past four Bayern Munich defenders completed the move by scoring a brilliant goal.
Atletico Madrid take a precious 1-0 advantage from the first leg of their Champions League semi-final at the Vicente Calderon on Wednesday.
That was 11 minutes into the game.
Bayern dominated possession for most of the rest of the time but could not find that away equalisier.
An ominous historical precedent for them is that they lost the first legs of their semi-finals in Spain in the previous two seasons to Real Madrid and Barcelona and then were eliminated from the proceedings each time.
So Bayern will be up against history as well when they hope to overturn this deficit in Bavaria next week.
And plenty of plaudits for Saul Niguez for that truly wonderful goal.
