Porto – Atlético live: Champions League, today, live

Against all unbelievers

History is written beat by beat. And the Athletes throbbed so hard in Porto that it left the Dragons. Cholo already said it years ago: “If you believe and work, you can”. And that’s what Atleti did, believe and work, overcome all obstacles to win the most important night of the year. To make real what nobody believed in. The ticket to eighths stays in Madrid. Yes you could.

And that the game started in the worst possible way: Atleti lost Suárez through injury and came to half-time shaking, being a puppet in the hands of Porto. Everything changed in the second chapter. After several miracles of cloud, Griezmann he found a ball combed by Taremi and sent it to the cage. Miracle on track.

That heated up the game, to the point that they showed five reds: Carrasco, Wendell, Marchesín (Porto substitute goalkeeper) and two assistants (one from each team). The field players saw her for attacks. Carrasco, hot, let go of his arm after an ugly one from Otávio and Wendell… He fell into the trap of Cunha, who went roguishly to the ground after noticing an arm around his neck.

In ten against ten Atleti closed it. First marked Correa, taking advantage of a counter and, shortly after, sentenced From Paul. The Athletes he fulfilled and made the unreal real. The impossible. The Liverpool (“with a little help from my friends”) echó una mano.

The rojiblanco from Madrid will be in the round of 16; Let the Boulevard of Broken Dreams wait. This one is still very much alive.
