Of course, the worst possible draw for Arsenal. There’s no doubt that Atletico Madrid are the strongest team left in the Europa League.
They probably have the best defence in Europe, having only conceded 15 goals in La Liga this season.
Antoine Griezmann and Diego Costa are a frightening front two. They also know how to win the competition, having lifted the trophy in 2010 and 2012.
Having said that, surely Arsenal were the team that Atletico wanted to avoid too? And in the quarter-final second leg, Sporting showed that the Spanish side are far from unbeatable.

Speaking as an Arsenal fan, AC is just at our level now...after all, AC used to qualify for Champions league regularly..then suddenly dropped off.

At the same time...the signs were there we might beat AC...their domestic performance has not been too spectacular compared to us. Still...i won't lie...I was concerned.

Athletico, on the other hand, have been at the level of Barca and Real in LaLiga in the last 5 years ..to the point that they have been regular contenders for the title.

Arsenal will face Atletico Madrid in the Europa League semi-finals, while RB Salzburg play Marseille.

The Gunners will play the first leg at home on Thursday, 26 April, with the second leg a week later on 3 May.

The final will be held in Lyon, France on Wednesday, 16 May, with the winner guaranteed a place in next season's Champions League.

Liverpool will find out who they face in the Champions League semi-finals when the draw takes place at 12:00 BST.

Arsenal won their quarter-final against CSKA Moscow 6-3 on aggregate, but were made to work in Thursday's second leg.

Leading 4-1 from the first tie, the Gunners conceded twice in Moscow and needed late goals from Danny Welbeck and Aaron Ramsey to make progress more comfortable.

Winning the Europa League looks to be the Gunners' most likely way of qualifying for next season's Champions League, with Arsene Wenger's side sixth in the Premier League and 13 points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham.

Atletico, Europa League winners in 2010 and 2012, are considered favourites to win the competition and are second in the Spanish La Liga, 11 points behind leaders Barcelona and with the best defensive record in the league.

They came through their semi-final against Sporting Lisbon 2-1, losing the second leg 1-0 in Portugal.

A tough draw for the gunners but Arsenal can beat Atletico Madrid over 2 legs but they have to work very hard defensively, keep a high level of concentration in every minute of the tie, take their chances when it comes and hope Atletico has an off day as well then they can cruise easily to the Europa league final.
