Los Colchoneros recently visited Alaves. Especially in the early stages, guests struggled with Alaves’ defensive game orientation and struggled to generate scoring opportunities. When everything already indicated a goalless draw for the half-time break, Atletico struck cold and took the lead through Marcos Llorente. With the narrow lead we then went into the half-time break. Even after the change of sides, the fans were not offered a top game. Although coach Diego Simeone’s team had more of the game, it was hard to generate chances. From the 63rd minute of play, the hosts had to get along with one man less. Laguardia was expelled from the square. It seemed as if the victory of the guests was in dry cloths. However, an own goal by Felipe ensured the surprising equalisation. Luis Suarez reserved the last word. After preliminary work by Youngstar Joao Felix, he netted to the 2-1 final.
The Simeone eleven have played very well recently and have won four consecutive wins. Due to the more than appealing performances Atletico Madrid moved to the first place in the table. Only one defeat had to be accepted in 15 competitive matches. This came about in the derby after a 0-2 draw against Real Madrid. On the other hand, 12 victories and two draws were won. The gap to the league second Real Madrid, which has completed two more games, measures two counters. The Rojiblancos impress with the best offensive group in the league. Only six goals were conceded in 15 matches. The offensive looks at 29 hits.
Luis Suarez is the best attacker in his own ranks with nine goals. After the test of strength with Bilbao, it is important to stand against Seville in front of a local backdrop.
During the week, the La Liga leader embarrassed third division UE Cornella in the Copa del Rey. After 90 minutes, the Simeone Elf dropped out of the competition 0-1 and can thus focus on the domestic league and Champions League.

Bilbao received Barcelona FC on the last day of the season. At the same time, it is the first game of the new coach Marcelino. He let the Basques attack immediately. An attitude that should turn out to be right. Williams led the home team after only three minutes. Both teams gave each other nothing in the following period and continued to play forward in a lively manner. The next hit didn’t take long. Pedri netted a 1-1 equaliser in the 13th minute. Afterwards, the encounter flattened somewhat, with Barca having more of the game and not going undeserved through Messi in the lead after 38 minutes. After the change of sides, William and Raul Garcia had the chance to equalize. After that, the Catalans were on the move in the form of Messi. However, his second goal did not count due to an offside position. He then failed at the crossbar. In the 62nd minute of the game, he then scored 3-1. In the final phase, the home team managed to come 2-3 after a mess by Messi through Muniain. But it wasn’t enough for more in the end.
The start under the new coach thus went into the pants. It should be noted that Barcelona is certainly not an easy opponent. Also Atletico is not an easy task on the coming match day. With a total of six wins, three draws and nine defeats, 21 points were scored in the current season. The offensive looks at 21 goals scored and on the other hand the defense has conceded a total of 22 goals. Athletic currently occupies ninth place in the table.
With four goals each, Muniain and Williams are the best attackers in their own ranks. After the duel against leader Atletico Madrid, it is time to compete at Real Madrid. No doubt no easy tasks.
