To those who believe that the Atletico Madrid They don’t play at all, you have to tell them they are wrong. Although the results have not been given to the team of Simon This season (perhaps the last of the Cholo), the Argentine DT will make sure that his Colchonero plays until the end with a knife between his teeth”. And so it happened this Sunday in a game that was dying and until there it is was a 0 -0 nailed against Betis. Minute 87, appeared Angelo Correa in the box, he held the ball after a rebound, cleared with a feint and scored a great right-footed goal to give the team breathing room in the Champions League positions (six points ahead of Real Sociedad, nine already over the defeated Pellegrini team).
His last shot with his right foot achieved what the rojiblanco team had tried so hard before and failed to achieve. Angelito managed to beat Rui Silva, which had previously been impossible for Yannick Carrasco and Marcos Llorente. In addition, the Argentine appeared when the match offered Atlético more doubts with Betis, who had cheered up and taken a step forward.
There are eleven matches without defeat for the Madrid team, which didn’t shine like in the victories against Sevilla and Valencia, in the last two home games, but has further consolidated the third place. It was also the end of a six-game unbeaten run for Manuel Pellegrini’s side, three points off fourth place in the Champions League and now being pressed by Villarreal in the competition for Europe and the Champions League. There are 11 duels left.
Correa’s statement contrasts with Lemar’s inconsistency. The level for which Atlético paid Monaco nearly 70 million for him is still awaited. Finally, in the 67th minute Angelito replaced the Frenchman and closed the match with a great goal from 70 goals.
