And Saul smiled again

AND Saúl Ñíguez smiled again. The player of the Atlético de Madrid, who acknowledged a week ago that he was not having a good time mentally, scored the second goal of the mattress team against Sevilla.

The youth squad was having a bad time. It is. He was the first to acknowledge that the team was doing well without his presence and that he had to work to regain his place. And in those it is. In front of Seville, jumped onto the field after game time instead of Lemar. And soon after, he saw the door again a long time later.

Why Saul He had not scored since June 30, when he scored two goals, both from penalties, during the visit to Camp Nou. Obviously, it was his first goal of a season that is not turning out to be easy for him.

Received from Marcos Llorente in the front of the area, he settled down and with his left foot, he put it next to the stick, impossible to BondA shout of tabia echoed through the Metropolitan.

Saúl celebrated the goal in style. I needed it. And the dedication was special. Because he took the ball from the goal and put it under his shirt, at the height of the gut. He's going to be a father. Of a girl. And I had wanted to celebrate it like this for a long time.

A goal that helped Atlético close out the clash against Sevilla to extend their advantage over their pursuers (four at Madrid and seven to Barcelona, and still with two games less) and that will help the Elche to recover.
