The
Atlético de Madrid
stroked the eighths of the Champions League, until a Brazilian penalty Philip he took her passport five minutes from the end. He had entered due to a muscular problem of the Uruguayan Gimenez, which was key.
The Bayern tied when he could have left Madrid losing, because the Athletic he made a great game. Thomas muller equaled that of Joao Felix in moments of full red and white dominance.
It will be played in Salzburg the Atlético de Madrid
. It will be worth a draw, but he will go out to the field with the obligation to score if he wants to go to the second round as second in the group.
A single win and three draws have conditioned their group stage. His next opponent easily won in Russia to the Lokomotiv, with doublet of Berisha in the first act and the sentence of Adeyemi (1-3). He arrives with nothing to lose and with his offensive vocation.
There is good and bad news. The bad news, that with this score or less at this point, it never passed the phase. The good news … that whenever he was eliminated, the season ended in title.
The six points that the Athletic right now they are the worst balance together with the 17/18, which also added six points. Only made worse by a precedent in which Simeone he did not train the team, the one from 09/10, in which they took three points.
Well, on those two occasions, the Athletic fell to Europa League… tournament that ended up winning. With the Cholo, the experience that was lived in 17/18 was bad but it had a happy ending. The two draws against him Qarabag, added to the Rome and defeat against him Chelsea, they left the team out of the maximum continental competition.
But then passing by Europa League it was a walk, a Athletic much superior that ended up lifting the title in Lyon, before him Olympique de Marseille.
On 10/09, the team of Quique Sánchez Flores was also eliminated in a tournament in which the Athletic was surpassed by Chelsea, Porto and suffered with him Apoel
Nicosia. That campaign would end in title too, with that of Hamburg.
