Martin Atkinson is set to referee Real Madrid's encounter with Atlético de Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final (Tuesday, 8:45pm CEST). It will be the fifth time that the English official takes charge of a Whites' game in the competition.
The first came on the 15th of September 2009, in Real Madrid's 2-5 win over Zurich in the Group Stages. The same season, he also oversaw Olympique Lyon vs Real Madrid (1-0), in the first leg of the last-sixteen tie. In the 2014-15 campaign, he took charge of Schalke 04 vs Real Madrid (0-2), again in the first leg of the last-sixteen, before refereeing Juventus vs Real Madrid (2-1), in the first leg of the semi-finals.
