 Passage 2:Atlético Madrid reached their third European Cup final after defeating Bayern Munich on away goals (2–2 on aggregate). Their previous two European Cup finals in 1974 and 2014 both ended in defeats, to Bayern Munich and Real Madrid respectively. Atlético Madrid had also played in three Cup Winners' Cup finals (winning in 1962, and losing in 1963 and 1986) and two Europa League finals (winning in 2010 and 2012), with their most recent Europa League triumph in 2012 led by current coach Diego Simeone, widely attributed as having brought Atlético Madrid back to glory, but had yet to win a Champions League. He had the chance to join fellow Argentinians Luis Carniglia and Helenio Herrera as the only non-European coaches to win the European Cup/Champions League. More importantly, Atlético Madrid were seeking revenge for the 2014 final, which they lost 4-1 against Real Madrid after extra-time. If they would win the Champions League, they would join Juventus, Ajax, Bayern Munich and Chelsea as clubs to have won the three main European club competitions. On the other hand, if they were to lose, they would become the first team to lose their first three European Cup finals.
