Atletico is disappointing in the new year. In the middle of the week, Simeone’s team lost to Levante, which is an outsider. On Saturday, the Spanish champions face Osasuna in their 25th matchday.
Atletico won, but it can speak of luck. A flash of genius Suarez and Felix decided.
Although Atletico probably won 3-0, it was more than a good game that was influenced by the circumstances and the spark of genius of individual players. Joao Felix scored the first goal in the third minute of the match. This hit allowed the Simeone team to set themselves up for counterattacks. And this is how the game looked like for the most part. Osasuna dominated the ball possession as well as the created actions, but she was unable to turn it into goals. Simeone’s team finished the match with four strokes on goal by Herrera, one of which could be a candidate for the goal of the season.
In the 59th minute, it launched an exemplary counterattack. First, one of the defenders of the Spanish champions kicked a spade from his own penalty area, which hit Joao Felix’s feet. The Portuguese player did not hesitate for a long time, but from the first ball he played a perpendicular upper pass in the direction that Osasuna’s advanced goalkeeper noticed and with a beautiful, measured shot from 50 meters he hit the net. Although there are more beautiful hits, the Uruguayan should be appreciated not only for his idea, but also for his precision. It was his eighth goal in 23 La Liga games this season. In the 89th minute Correa increased the result.
– Killer, killer, killer! But the Suaraz rocket – enthusiastic commentators on Eleven Sports.
After the victory, Atletico is 42 points after 25 games and is fourth in the table with a three-point advantage over Villarreal as well. One of the positive surprises this season, Osasuna has 32 points and is ninth. The situation in the table of both clubs may change after the end of the round.
