MADRID (AP) - Spanish clubs had another impressive night in European play, with Athletic Bilbao, Atletico Madrid and Valencia advancing to the Europa League semifinals along with Sporting Lisbon on Thursday.
Bilbao rallied twice for a 2-2 draw against visiting Schalke to advance on 6-4 aggregate, Valencia routed visiting AZ Alkmaar 4-0 for a 5-2 win in the home-and-home, total-goals series, and Atletico won 2-1 at Hannover to advance 4-2. Sporting tied 1-1 at Metalist Kharkiv to win 3-2.
In the all-Iberian semifinals, Sporting plays Bilbao and Atletico faces Valencia. The Spanish clubs also reached the final four in 2007.
Earlier in the week, Barcelona and Real Madrid reached the Champions League semifinals.
