gave back athletic to the metropolitan After the accident in Bruges, where Simeone’s men left an alarming appearance due to their laziness. Bad for Cholo to diagnose correctly and at the start of this match Girona. The match was a party from the start because the club organized the day of the clubs, on a day where players from both teams made Koke a lane, after already adding 555 games to become the most matched athletic player in history.
early goal
That festive mood permeated the team, which came out with great intensity and, above all, verticality in attack. So much so that after four minutes Reinildo recovered a ball and came out very aggressively on offense, Griezmann After the deal between rojiblancos and azulgranas, he will no longer have to wait 60 minutes to play. He assisted the French defender and Correa to clear the goal. Girona was once again punished for his defensive fragility.
The Catalans rule the games with possession and Atlético called them from their home area, where they are equipped for a counterattack. It took twenty minutes for Girona to get over her inexperience and step into Oblak’s territory. Once again, the Colchoneros stayed behind cautiously, and their fans whistled at them as the match was starting to become another ordeal, a common denominator of the red and white season. Simeone’s voice was hoarse and demanded offensive aggression from his team. ‘Rojiblancos’ stretched a little in the last ten minutes to coach Juan Carlos, but the visitors equalized with a shot from Yangel Herrera in the last game of the first half. The mattress stand was flexing when Munuera signaled a break.
Another session of tension and unrest was recorded at the Metropolitano, but in the second game after the reboot, Girona confirmed that they are a crystal team. Simeone led his team out of the cave and ordered it to be played on the guest court. And in one of those goalkeepers he passed a pass to Juan Carlos Correa and the Argentinean did not forgive. Simeone sighed with relief when she saw how suddenly a quiet afternoon had faded.
The goal forced the Catalans to take risks on offense and there were gaps for the rojiblanco attackers. A more attractive setting than the leaded first half. El Cholo sharpened his tooth with Lemar and Morata. error Riquelme, an athletic academy player already wearing a striped jersey in his loan year at Girona, tapped Giménez with his right hand before hitting Oblak’s goal. There is no quiet day in the life of athletes.
Oblak started a business that wasn’t good news for the red and white congregation. Slovenian prevented the draw with two shots from Aleix and Slovenia made a terrific shot, the first with the stick. Girona has grown and Atletico has shrunk. The ones from Simeone start the games believing they are Brad Pitt and recognize themselves in Alfredo Landa. A mysterious phenomenon that drives athletes to skepticism and boredom. This time it was enough for the top rogue of his class (Correa) to score goals and Oblak’s daily miracles in the form of stops. This Atletico doesn’t look good, but this time Correa and his goalkeeper chased the ghosts. The match is summed up with the Metropolitan’s final whistle to his team. Even his hobby is boring. And Sabina yawns…
