Kondogbia, a birthday between hope and uncertainty

Geoffrey kondogbia, footballer of Atlético de Madrid
, live this February 15 his 28th birthday. And he does it without knowing yet very well what role he can play in the mattress team.

For the French who plays for Central African RepublicIt was a great decision to force his departure from Valencia to join a team like the mattress. A bet that has not yet been endorsed because it has not yet taken a leading role in the rojiblanco team.

And this birthday comes at a strange moment because it seemed that he had finally remarked his head in the starting eleven. He was a starter before Celta Vigo and he was one of the best rojiblancos on the field. A great game was scored after an irregular opening half hour. From there he grew, started the two plays that ended with the goal of Luis Suarez, the second with a 25-meter pass to the back of the defense, measured, to I gave it… and also prevented the Galician team from scoring a sung goal. With a great gallop in which he recovered meters to Blades, took out the auction that was inside, with his foot. Great game.

A game that earned him a start again against him grenade. And the Frenchman was one of the best in the first half, but that did not prevent Simeone replaced him at half-time to give entry to Vrsaljko. In this case, it does not seem that it was out of dissatisfaction with his performance, but because that change of pieces served to place Koke pivot, which made a masterful game, and above all to free more Llorente on the right wing so that he would arrive more assiduously,

And the bet was perfect because it was the Madrid who opened the scoring and then gave an assist to strap for 1-2. Kondogbia It was a necessary sacrifice in the eyes of Simeone. Against Granada, the Frenchman played 45 minutes, gave 35 good passes and missed five, he was the one that generated the most chances, three, with two deep passes that did not end in a goal after passing the death of teammates, almost. He recovered six balls, made two successful innings, lost five balls, was fouled and committed two.
