EI Atlético came out badly from their visit to Anfield, where Liverpool was superior from practically the beginning of the match and the options of turning around again to a 2-0 against as in the first leg (he even equaled the result, but Simeone’s men ended up falling by 2-3 playing with ten) They evaporated with the direct red seen by Felipe at 36 minutes of the meeting.
However, the glass may still look half full. The positive section happens because Atlético still depends on itself in the Champions League and could even be in the draw for the next round of 16 without having to win the two remaining games. One of the few good news of the fourth day of the group stage came from the tie between Milan and Porto, which leaves Atlético as third classified, but at a point of the Portuguese club that they still have to face on the last day after Sergio Conceiçao’s men have had to go through an Anfield that at the moment is a steamroller network.
What’s more, Savic finally ended the four-game suspension he had dragged on since last season and Griezmann completed his suspension match for the red against Liverpool from Wanda Metropolitano. Atlético will host Milan at the Wanda Metropolitano on November 24 and a red-and-white victory would bring the pass closer and leave the Italians definitely out of action. The rojiblanco club not only plays the prestige for advancing to the stage in a very complicated group, but also a very important economic sum. Each group victory means 2.8 million gross (2,715 net), the tie leaves € 930,000 in the coffers of the clubs (0.9 net) and being in the eighth would provide 9.6 million key in athletic economics (9.3 net). Overcoming the group stage is essential not only in sports, but also in the monetary section.
