A goal from youth player Álvaro prevented Atlético from winning, who again had ten at the Bernabéu
Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid drew 1-1 in a derby that will not go down in history. Neither had a great performance and both left upset: Atlético for the red card for Correa and the draw when they won the derby, and Madrid for not winning and leaving La Liga on a tray for Barça.
The team from Madrid tried more in the first half, especially in the early stages. After Reinildo’s injury, Simeone changed the system and Atlético began to suffer less. In the second half, Real Madrid wanted to bring more rhythm into the game, but were unable to create dangerous scoring chances.
In this, Correa was sent off by shoving Rüdiger in the stomach. A controversial action, because the push seemed light, but the Argentinian bought tickets in an action without the ball. It looked like the match would be played against Real Madrid, but Giménez put Atlético ahead in a set piece.
It was his turn to return to Madrid, something he, as we already know, loves to do. And that’s where it started. Álvaro Rodríguez, a youth player who already had some good minutes in Pamplona, leveled the game after a corner kick to set fire to the Bernabéu.
The white team tried to the end but failed to score the winning goal and are seven points behind Barcelona, which could be ten if the Barca team wins in Almeria on Sunday.

Reactions of Real Madrid vs. Atlético Madrid of La Liga 2022-2023
Ancelotti, in press conference
“It’s not goodbye to LaLiga. It’s more complicated for this game, we have to fight to the end and we’ll see what happens. Álvaro has shown his quality, a special night for him. We think he can be useful in this. ” part of the season”.
“I didn’t use Camavinga or Tchouaméni because I thought we wanted the ball. I tried to bring freshness to the field by putting Kroos in the center. We thought Atlético didn’t put much pressure up front and that could come.” useful. We had time to draw after Atlético’s goal, but not to win it.”
“Next season Álvaro will play in Real Madrid’s first team. The idea is to have him in the first team and also in this last part of the season. I think he can be with us and with Castilla we will make it .” well with Raúl”.
“We conceded the goal because we have to consider the quality of the rivals. They have a high quality player in Griezmann and a great finisher in Giménez. Emotionally the level of the team has dropped a bit. I don’t think there is physical fatigue, maybe it lacked mental freshness. It’s the 17th game in 50 days”.
“I asked Álvaro to put height in the center, because in these kinds of games you miss height in the front, because Karim is not a regular striker. We had to concentrate more in the last part, he is really good in the head.” “.
“Yes, Correa’s expulsion seemed reasonable to me.”
“Now the cup is the most important thing. In Thursday’s game we are very close to a title. We are 270 minutes away from winning the cup.”
“It was a difficult game for Benzema, he lacked mental freshness. I think he scored a lot of goals after the World Cup.”
“Tomorrow we will rest, the players deserve it. On Tuesday we will start the game before Thursday’s game.”

Simeone, at a press conference
“I cannot clarify more things than what is in the statement. I am passing on what I see. It was a beautiful, beautiful game, as all of us who played in this stadium. We recovered from being sent off. I understand the vision of the referee.” but it’s also the VAR as the action isn’t violent enough to send a player out of school. We don’t know if the VAR called him or not. Rüdiger is big, Correa is small, you can’t shoot him with something like that”. Decisions. Against these kinds of decisions, we had to make decisions again. The only way to solve this is to have everyone’s help. Yesterday Miranda at Betis committed a foul which later ended in a penalty kick in favor of Betis… things could have been done better. We all have to compete again in the best way”.
“Three red derbies? We’re focusing on what we need to focus on. In the Copa del Rey, they were able to take out Ceballos as everyone saw, but they didn’t get a yellow, today over Ángel… we have to work and trying to help because it’s better for everyone. You see, there are things that are very clear”.
“I believe in people, otherwise I wouldn’t be alive. There’s help and help from the VAR. There’s the fourth referee, the line… but I also understand that we could be wrong. I keep saying ‘thank God the VAR is there, less bad that is the VAR'”.
“Reinildo’s injury? We wish him a good recovery.”
“It was quite a chameleon game. We strengthened the zone a little more with Llorente, we went to 5-4-1. We controlled their best facet very well, that’s the last part of the game where they hardly had any dangerous play. In the second half we tried to continue with two strikers up front and I think we had a good initiative in the second half, the send-off came, we sometimes went to 5-4, but with Carrasco, Lemar, Griezmann, Morata.. . we defended with attacking players. We were close to winning the game, but we are left with this draw. They are always very dangerous in the end”.
“Yes, I still think Gil Manzano is a barbaric referee. An action changes nothing. It seems that the contact is not so violent that a 1.94 player falls. In football there must be contact and if there is no contact , it is difficult.”
“Every time I get the ‘Cholo stay, Cholo stay’ it’s great.”
