Atlético recovers the armor

Atlético is back from the break with its strongest version. In four days he has struck a claw to the Champions zone and, in large part, it has been thanks to the fact that has been shielded as in its best moments. The three wins he has linked have reached zero. Oblak has not conceded a goal for 324 minutes, almost five and a half hours of soccer. Locked, the wins are much easier …

The rojiblanco team went to the break with a worrying fact: in the last four games the rival had overtaken him. And on the way back, in Bilbao, the same thing happened: Muniain scored 1-0 in 36 '. Five games in a row in which Atleti had to overcome and only won two of them, Villarreal (3-1) and Liverpool (2-0 to 2-3). He signed the tables with Espanyol (1-1), Sevilla (2-2) and Athletic (2-2). In the last week everything has changed.

Those of Simeone have confirmed that when they get ahead they are a very inaccessible rival. The defense has performed at a very high level despite the fact that Felipe, the most outstanding footballer, is out due to injury. Giménez, Savic and Hermoso are fine and, just in case, there is also Oblak. Although against Osasuna, Valladolid and Levante the team has not needed heroics from the Slovenian. In three games he has made five stops. In La Nucía they did not finish him on goal despite the final arreón of the premises.

The best streak in this League was between September and October, when Atleti did not fit in four days, against Celta, Mallorca, Real Madrid and Valladolid. He can equalize against Alavés and, if he bolts again, he will choose to excel at the Camp Nou.
