Atlético has reached the stoppage standing out in several statistics in First Division: he is the only undefeated, the one with the most points per game, the one with the fewest goals, he does not have the top scorer, but he does have the highest scoring pair (João-Suárez) … And also, has the maximum assistant of the League: belt. The Argentinian has given four goals, The same as Canales (although in fewer minutes, 441 'the rojiblanco and 773' the betic). More another that served in Champions. And João Félix, brilliant at the start of the season, is taking advantage of this success.
The young Atlético star has seven goals and four have come after a pass from his teammate Correa. The other assist, the first of all, went to Diego Costa, in Atlético's first goal of the course. Against Granada, Salzburg, Osasuna and Cádiz, João celebrated a goal thanking '10' for it. The Argentine is getting on well with him. It's more, his only goal of the course came precisely from João Félix's pass. In other words, the alliance has generated five goals. Last season it only happened once, against Cultural.
The focus is taking the trident formed by João Félix, Suarez (five points) and Llorente (four and two assists), but belt is knowing find your space and add from the right wing. He has participated in all ten games, seven of them as a starter, despite the fact that the competition is very expensive, since Carrasco (now injured), Vitolo, Lemar, the midfielders …
João's partners: Koke, Suárez, Correa …
In an environment that allows João Félix to shine, he looks for connections in the field to help you. Koke looks for you frequently, Suarez You already know what it is to score a pass from the Portuguese, Llorente and Lemar have attended João, and above all the numbers they point to belt. These four services (in 33 games) make him the second footballer who has helped the '7' the most to score goals. Just Pizzi, that with Benfica he gave him five assists in 35 games, is ahead of Little angel.
However, at the pace of João Félix (seven goals in ten games) and Correa's (one assist every two games), it seems low risk to bet that this society will bring joy to Atlético again. The Argentine record is the ten assists (8 in the League and 2 in the Cup) that he gave in the 16-17 season; and nine hit the next.
