The Slovenian earned high praise from his manager after helping Atleti reach the quarter-finals.
Diego Simeone compared Jan Oblak to Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi after the goalkeeper's exploits helped Atletico Madrid eliminate Champions League holders Liverpool.
Oblak produced a man-of-the-match display with a number of important saves in Atletico's stunning 3-2 extra-time victory over Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday.
Liverpool were on top for much of the last-16 second leg - having 34 shots on goal - but they could not move clear of Atletico or get the better of Oblak as the visitors secured a 4-2 aggregate triumph thanks to Marcos Llorente's brace and Alvaro Morata's late strike.
Regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers, Oblak earned high praise from Atletico head coach Simeone post-match.
"We have a goalkeeper who is the best in the world, no doubt," Simeone said. "I have been saying that for some time.
"It's like Barcelona who have Messi. He decides games with his attacking play; Oblak resolves them with his saves."
Jan the Man - you were sensational tonight.
