Griezmann overtakes Atlético Madrid

Osasuna and Atlético Madrid have taken to the field full of strength, and in the first part of the match the protagonists of the match, the players of both teams, have worked hard. Morata had the first opportunity, but his shot from the outside went very wide, and then, in the 13th minute, Ante Budimir had two plays in which he was able to finish, the first with his left foot and the the second head. In the 18th minute, Lucas Torró, with a hard left foot shot that narrowly missed him, came very close to opening the scoring.

He did it, almost immediately, Antoine Griezmann, in a play that began on the left of Atlético Madrid’s attack. Lino focused into the small area, very closed, and Aitor Fernández, who perhaps was waiting for Morata’s shot, was unable to clear it clearly; Griezmann, very attentive, picked up the ball, and, without too much of an angle, with his left foot, he kicked to make it 0-1. It was the 20th minute.

Osasuna suffered the blow in the following minutes, but Jagoba Arrasate’s men had the ability to recover and make the rival retreat. Mojica, in an action of skill and strength, threw violently at Oblak’s right post; Already in the stoppage of the first half, in a good combination of the attacking players of the rojillo team, Aimar Oroz was on the verge of being left alone against the visiting goalkeeper. The Navarrese team moved the ball, and tried to find a gap in the rival defense, which seemed confident and seamless. In this way, the first half concluded with the 0-1 established by Griezmann.

Osasuna show in the second part

A beautiful play that Jesús Areso and Aimar Oroz put together on the right, with class and speed, left Chimy Ávila alone on the edge of the area, and the Argentine’s good shot went just wide. It was the action that started Osasuna’s offensive in the second half, in which Osasuna came out determined to find an equalizer, and, pushed by the fans of El Sadar, they overwhelmed Atlético Madrid.

Simeone, who was not happy with what he was seeing, put César Azpilicueta on the field, who was received with a great ovation. Jagoba Arrasate, for his part, played the tricks of Iker Muñoz and Jon Moncayola, to even increase the pace of the match. In the midst of an electrifying atmosphere, with El Sadar participating as another player, Osasuna deserved to score the equalizer. Chimy Ávila again, Lucas Torró from close range in the 66th minute, David García seconds later… Atlético Madrid could not leave their field, because Osasuna did not allow it.

Goal disallowed

In these, In the 77th minute, one of the key plays of the game came. In a corner, taken from the left, David Garcia He rose perfectly and headed impeccably; Osasuna was celebrating the tie with great joy, when the referee, Martínez Munuera, annulled the goal. In the absence of knowing the exact reason for the decision of the Valencian referee, the truth is that it is not easy to determine it; The visiting defender Witsel has fallen, in an action with Budimir and Oroz, who has been pushed by Giménez, in what seemed nothing more than a struggle within the area, a struggle. Jagoba Arrasate has been expelled for his protests, below.

Nerves became very intense after that, and Atlético Madrid knew how to take advantage of it; in a quick counterattack, Rodrigo Riquelmewith skill, dribbled past Aitor and, with an empty goal, made the 0-2. Things were already getting very difficult for Osasuna, which has seen, as if that were not enough, how Chimy Ávila has been sent off after two clashes with Morata, who has also been reprimanded with a red card.

Osasuna has not stopped trying, but has encountered too many difficulties. The discount has left a great save by Aitor, against Azpilicueta, before the crowd of Sadar farewells its players with a standing ovationfor their effort and for the good play they have shown, after the final whistle.
