Atlético’s Away Form: Reliant on Home Advantage?

Atlético cut off his victory streak the first day he played away from the Metropolitan. He does not finish finding the path of triumph away from home. And that which put back on the scoreboard at the first change. But Lenglet was expelled by two grabs and condemned his team to carry out a resistance exercise. He is no longer the fort of this Atlético, who saw how Iago Aspas, in the first ball that he touched, put the tables on the scoreboard to distribute a point that does not serve any. Atlético moves away from the head stalls and Celta still wins in this league.

The game began electric, with a clear occasion of Celta at 90 seconds. A great center of Jutglà from the band sent him out Borja Iglesias before everyone’s surprise. Atlético responded and found very soon the way of the goal to get back, as in all the games of this league, ahead on the scoreboard. A known scenario for Simeone. A brilliant transition initiated by Griezmann in the spinal cord with an exquisite passed with the left -hander, who enabled a Pablo Barrios who planted alone before Radu. He wanted to be generous and gave Julián Álvarez to push the network, but it was Starfelt who did it in his attempt to clear. Bad luck for the Celtic and good for the rojiblancos, who very soon put the face game.

The goal allowed Atlético to continue with a high pressure and a good collective employment that complicated the ball out of a very predictable Celtic that barely disturbed Oblak, except for aerial balls to a Borja Iglesias that finished off all, but without success. The rojiblancos were playing, with precision, speed and without rushing, but with hardly danger. The Celta was recomposed and took the ball and those of Simeone seemed to take a break and folded lines waiting to steal and leave quickly.

In one of those Arreones he had the second in Hakko’s boots, which shot after a perfect Griezmann pass to allow Radu to show off. The rejection did not know how to take advantage of Julián Álvarez before a maraña of celestial legs. Nico González sent the ball to the Atlantic after a perfect koke pass when the simplest seemed to place it between the three sticks. The last minutes denied that football is a sports and mistake sport. And Lenglet made a rude mistake in an action without danger and inconsequential that cost him the second yellow, leave his team with ten and change the stage of the game to the edge of the break. Borja Iglesias had two whites and both ran into the same man: Jan Oblak.

He replied Simeone the team with the entrance of Javi Galán by Griezmann and raised a second part with the same idea of ​​pressing up and calmly playing with the ball waiting for an opportunity to hurt the rival. The Celta, on the other hand, continued with a predictable game without being able to find a hole where the tooth is seized to the rojiblancos. Claudio Giráldez put all the meat on the grill with the entrance of Bryan Zaragoza and Iago Aspas, which matched Manolo as the players with more official matches with Celta (533).

And it was Santo for the Vigueses because he marked the draw in the first auction he had after a good celestial play that first saved Oblak – after Borja Iglesias auction – but the rejection took advantage of the captain to celebrate his onomastics of games with goal. Simeone went around the team as a sock seeking to avoid foreseeable suffering in the remaining minutes. The Celta had the ball and pressed, but was unable to find the goal that the first league victory gave him.
