Suffering. This is one of the signs history of Atlético de Madrid. Today those of Cholo Simeone suffered a lot to win against a great Osasuna, very neat and safe in defense the whole game. In the final stretch, a corner thrown by Carrasco, the best of the game, Felipe nodded to give a victory capital to his own (1-0).
The first half was pretty even. Osasuna was the one who proposed the game in the first minutes, although little by little Atlético de Madrid was reacting. Raids Lemar, Carrasco and the centers of Hermoso on the left wing they made Simeone’s men wake up, although they did not enjoy too many clear occasions.
The one that came closest to finishing in a goal was a point-blank shot of Griezmann that David García covered for him. The Frenchman was very failed, since he could not score in any of the four attempts he had on Herrera’s goal before the break. Of course, Osasuna also gave a very serious warning. Torró tried a whiplash from afar to which Oblak responded very well.
After the break the dynamic was different. Atlético de Madrid had to go to the game and carried more danger in attack. This time he went more for right wing, with Llorente and Vrsaljko, besides a hyperactive Carrasco. The VAR annulled a goal of Griezmann offside, but what was said: Atlético de Madrid was going to more.
Thus. Simeone entered two very offensive players that came from their commitments in South America: Luis Suarez and De Paul. It also introduced Cunha and Kondogbia. The Brazilian left a good ball for a Carrasco who almost scored a goal in personal move. Yannick was the best of the match for the rojiblancos.
It had to be in un corner thrown by the Belgian, in the last minutes, when the can was finally opened. Felipe anticipated everyone, He showed off his great aerial game and combed the ball to the back of the net. Essential goal to stay in the title fight.
