Atletico Madrid lost 2-1 to Bayern Munich but advanced to the final on away goals, and Fernando Torres admitted it was an arduous clash.
Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres likened the second leg of the Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich to a "siege."
Xabi Alonso's first-half free kick canceled out Atletico's 1-0 aggregate advantage from the first leg, but Thomas Muller failed to build upon that when he had a penalty saved by Jan Oblak before the interval.
Bayern continued to search for another goal, and it was hit on the counterattack shortly after the restart when Antoine Griezmann slotted a cool finish past Manuel Neuer.
