Good morning, America. It's May 4, 2016. Welcome to the VICE Sports World News Roundup. Be sure to stop by every morning for more headlines from around the world.

Atletico Madrid is through to the finals of the Champions League after knocking Bayern Munich out of the competition. Atletico took the first leg 1-0. Last night, in the return fixture, Bayern managed to beat Atletico 2-1, but the Spaniards go through on the away goals rule. Weirdly, in last night's game both teams were awarded penalties, and they were both saved.

Tonight in the Champions League, Man City plays Real Madrid. The first leg ended in a 0-0 tie.

Joe Cole, one of my all-time favorite players, is going to join the Tampa Bay Rowdies, in the U.S. second division. Good luck, Joe. Obligatory Joe Cole highlight:

Leicester City had their parade. It featured a guy who looks exactly like Jamie Vardy.

If you're wondering what it was like in Leicester after they won the title, we've got you covered.

There is more news of the fallout following the dramatic 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham. Cesc Fabregas reportedly went around "slapping the groins of Spurs players and staff." If you want to start a fight, that seems like the way to go.

Some house news: VICE Sports and ESPN will be collaborating.

Tonight, on VICELAND, VICE World of Sports will feature a documentary on the Serbia's Eternal Derby. Don't miss it.
