MADRID (AP) – Goalkeeper Jan Oblak made a series of outstanding saves to help Atletico Madrid hold defending champion Real Madrid to a 0-0 tie Tuesday night in the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal.
In a rematch of last year’s final, Oblak stopped Dani Carvajal’s shot in the second minute, Oblak blocked Gareth Bale’s effort in the fourth after defender Diego Godin failed to make a clearance and saved Cristiano Ronaldo’s free kick. Oblak made a spectacular diving save to stop Bale’s shot in the 31st.
In the night’s other game, Juventus beat visiting Monaco 1-0 in Turin. Arturo Vidal converted a penalty kick in the 57th minute after Czech referee Pavel Kralovec ruled Ricardo Carvalho fouled Alvaro Morata in the penalty area.
The second legs of the total-goals series are April 22.
In first-leg matches Wednesday, Barcelona is at Paris Saint-Germain, and Bayern Munich is at Porto.
