We had a killer amongst us.

Murder at the U. Listen now.

Welcome to the latest edition of ESPN FC.

I'm Dan Thomas, joined by Craig Burley.

Later on the show, we'll be reflecting on Arsenal dropping points in the Premier League, but we'll kick things off in the Spanish capital.

Atletico Madrid taking Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final.

And what...

A first half this was for Atletico Madrid.

They would put four past Barcelona.

It could be more as well.

Barca in the second half thought they got one back.

It would be chalked off after a six-minute VAR delay.

And it Garcia then sent off.

Barca then very much with it.

All to do on March the 3rd as Atleti will take a 4-0 lead into the second leg at the Camp Nou.

Luis Garcia is with us, but I want to start with Alex Kirkland, pitch side.

We discussed it at the break.

I don't think I can remember a first half performance like that from Atleti in a very long time, Alex.

Another crazy thing to say, which I think is true as well, Luis.

4-0.
