At the start of the evening this Wednesday, Atlético de Madrid could not do better than a draw in Istanbul. Frankfurt lost in Azerbaijan to the surprise Qarabag.
The Colchoneros miss the mark. At the start of the evening, Atlético de Madrid was held to a draw on the Turkish lawn of Galatasaray (1-1), on the occasion of the 7th day of the Champions League. Diego Simeone’s team opened the scoring in the 4th minute thanks to his son Giuliano but an own goal conceded by Marcos Llorente (20th) allowed the Istanbulites to equalize.
In the second half, Antoine Griezmann’s squad – who entered on the hour mark – did not find the key. Two points lost for the Madrilenians, currently 8th in the league phase, tied on points (13) with several teams including PSG (5th). Galatasaray is 16th (10 pts) before the last day, next Wednesday.
