The Atletico Madrid became a giant at the Alfredo di Stéfano to beat the current champion of the Youth League, the Real Madrid, beating the eternal rival 2-3 and taking revenge for 2019 in a scenario that at times seemed like Majadahonda due to the support received by the mattresses. a sensational Paul Barrioswith two great goals and an assist, guided the Fernando Torres to the next round. The rojiblancos will be measured in quarters at Borussia Dortmund.
The game started very evenly, with both teams applying high pressure and activating perfectly after losing the ball to steal it again. The first to notify was Madrid, with a shot from Alex Jimenez from the front that caught Iturbe. And the minute Atlético responded, through Currás. No problem for Diego. More danger led Salim shortly after, when he looked for the squad after a dribble in the area, but he brushed against the wood.
There was little room for creation, with both teams very intense not to let the rival create. The team of Fernando Torres by the center and by band, and those of Hernan Perez almost always on the sides. As usually happens with the ‘greats’, it was the typical derby in which the details rule. And he understood perfectly Paul Barrios. Former white youth squad, who recently scored in Valdebebas to give Atlético the victory, again put the mattresses ahead. Like that day, with a great goal. This time he controlled in front, stepped on it with his right and with his left he hit perfectly to put the ball out of Diego’s reach. He celebrated it to Torres with Liverpool at Anfield against Madrid.
The goal did not change the script of the clash. The two continued to play the same game, with the whites trying to get one more gear to tie. A shot as far as good from Javier Villar forced to Iturbe to show off It would not happen more until the break.
But yes after the restart, when a corner in favor of Madrid would become 0-2 for Atlético. A book against, of those of a lifetime, ‘won’ by Salim protecting the ball and connecting with Barrios for it to enable aa Sergio Diez He finished with the side crossing the ball to put land in between.
The local team took a step forward, they had no choice, and González, who had just left, closed the gap with a good shot that surprised Iturbe. He squeezed Madrid. He had to suffer Atleti, who could do damage against them. Half an hour to go, the swords raised and the rigidity of the systems collapsing.
And there emerged, again, Barrios. Because Salim won another one and gave it to Barrios, who drove and shot from afar to put it in the squad. another great goal. The goal calmed down the colchoneros, who got back together behind and gave the ball to a Madrid that was looking for the heroic. The changes multiplied. Some to revolutionize the shock and others to sustain it.
Iturbe was decisive again González, with everything in favor, sent her upstairs. It was the white opportunity to get back into the clash. But there is always another. Peter focused. Ibra mismeasured. And Marvel, who was already center forward, managed to hit her with her leg to put her second and give her even more emotion. Atlético resisted, who are already in the quarterfinals of the Youth League after a brilliant season for Fernando Torres’ men. The champion, eliminated.
