The Atletico Madrid achieved his first victory in a derby in the Wanda Metropolitan. Curiously, it was achieved in the last year that the stadium will have the name of the company of Wang Jianglin. A win over a real Madrid who arrived very refreshed after being champion of League and have qualified for the final of the Champions League.
After this victory, the mattresses break with a small curse because they had not won since 2018 real Madrid. The last time they beat him was in Tallinn, when they conquered the European Super Cup beating the team Julen Lopetegui for 2-4. In the last great European derby.
To find the last victory at home for the rojiblancos, you have to go back to May 10, 2017 when they won 2-1 in the semifinals of the Champions League. A defeat with a bittersweet taste because after that triumph they were left without playing the final of the competition.
To find the last win at home for the colchoneros, you have to go back to 2015, when they won 4-0 in a game to remember. The biggest win of the pupils of the cholos to the real Madrid in recent years.
So far in the Wanda Metropolitan they had harvested before the real Madrid three draws and a 1-3 loss. Of course, last season they were close to beating them, but a bit of Benzema in the final minutes he ended up equalizing the whites. A tie that allowed the team of Zidane fight for LaLiga until the last minute.
