In the end they also had a couple of dangerous chances in our area, but in the second half we were vastly superior in dominance and at times. “

High competitive level

Having played like this against a team like him Atlético reinforces the work as a team and that is what makes me most happy. “

Surprise with eleven

The team has a significant improvement that allows us to continue to be excited until the end of the championship. “
