Atlético de Madrid is pure suffering. It is close to everything, but nothing reaches him. Outside the Champions League for a damn penalty, he collapsed in the local league. Of “Winter Champion” to be ten points from Barcelona (76 points) with five games to be played. And in the middle, as many times, Real Madrid. At least, he had a pretty night.
A feast, inside martyrdom. The 3 to 0 about Rayo Vallecano (Augusto battlein spite of everything, he had a good performance), in a meeting for the 33rd date of the League of Spain, he confirms the tendency: The alloy is a good team. But only with that is not enough.
Among all, Argentines. world champions, selection men. Julián Álvarez He gave a pass to the network to certify the win, in the final stretch. Giulian Simeone, first and Rodrigo de Paul, laterthey disguised asisters. The Argentines took the scene in the Metropolitan, which began with murmurs and ended up with applause.
Simeone poisoned center, scoring header of Alexander Sorloth: This is how the game began. Later, a great battle cover, a spectacular flight to resist the onlético de Madrid attacks.
The Norwegian was in a fallen layer. He came to accept his revulsive role during the season. Days ago, in an interview with FIFA.comhe said: “At first the substitution cost me, but now I like to be decisive.” And it is that the rojiblanco attacker arrived at Atlético After getting 26 screams last season in Villarrealwith the illusion of bringing those numbers to a club of the mattress. But he didn’t walk. I did not walk what is necessary.
Cholo Simeone, beyond that he put it in the first part of the season, almost always bowed to Julián Alvarez and Antoine Griezmannsomething relegated in recent times and with the future in suspense.
A hand to hand (a crossing with his feet, actually), beat Julian. From there in more, everything, but almost everything went from the Alet, who played with the nostalgia of not being. “We have the need to continue improving as a teamimproving the classification and, game by party, adding as many points as possible, ”Simeone said before the meeting.
And I warned: “They know me 14 years ago and know the player’s profile we need, not only in my stage, but what has always done well to Atlético de Madrid: We want people with characterpersonality, work Think of the team rather than individually And on this long path. In all this time we have had those players. ”
It shows that there are certain inconveniences with some players, especially those who make up the now lateble line. Beyond that this time, Jan Oblak It ended at 0. “What we interpreted all these years. For a coach, being 14 years in a club means that players have surrendered in an extraordinary way. Coaches are not magicians or fortune tellerswe look for something that represents us. I feel lucky to have been 14 years with players who have represented what I like about football, ”he insisted.
His words affect beyond the locker room.
At the end of the first chapter, when the murmurs began, Paul raised his headsent a long, calculated, precise center, for the scoring income of Conor Gallagher and another test.
A Julian taco, for the left -handed diverted from Griezmann: the threat threat was evident. French pass and the final touch to the network, to the first stick, by Julián a scorer. On the left, by the center, wherever.
“We are fine, with our heads focused on finishing the year [la temporada] In the best way with Atlético Madrid. And as a striker, keep trying goals to help the team and finish as high as possible. We must think of us, we know that we have to add three to continue climbing up there. Beyond what the rest does, think about ours, ”he said, after the game, in a talk with DirecTV Sports.
He lamented for the last weeks. “Obviously we had the very great illusion of the championship, We had been doing a great year. There were games in which we lost some points and that left us a little, but that’s it, it has already happened. Now think of improving and finishing the year as well as possible, ”he said. And the Argentine football Superclassic is throbbing …
“Of course I will be attentive and pending the superclassic, It is a good schedule, it is not so late here in Spain so it will be nice to look at it. As River fanobviously it is a positive result for us, ”he said.
The world champion smiles, defines and makes the spider’s gesture. And he is looking to become an out of world size. Simeone loves it, also: “Surely His goals speak of the footballer. We are knowing the person and is much more important than the footballer only. A boy who wants to compete, a boy who came to want to win and obviously hopefully we all can help him, so that he helps us and we help him in what the team obviously needs. ”
