Luis Suárez catapults Atlético to LaLiga

He Atlético de Madrid achieved a triumph of those who qualify as champion. It was no better than him Eibar, who also went ahead on the scoreboard with a goal from Dimitrovic (yes, the goalkeeper), a penalty. But it came back, with insulting effectiveness, hand in hand with Suarez, who scored both goals for a team that leaves the Madrid at seven points and at Barcelona to ten. And with one game less. Atlético did not shine at all. But winning like this invites you to think big. And so.

Can't say that the Eibar surprise the Athletic at the beginning. Simeone, its players and the mattress fans sitting in front of their televisions knew that Mendilibar they were going to come out by pressing up. And they did, of course. That made it impossible for the rojiblancos to reach three quarters with the ball. The ball barely lasted. And Eibar wanted to steal and get out fast.

In one of the robberies in the center of the field, Edu
Foundling searched long to Mutt, who won his back to Carrasco. The Japanese stopped, the Belgian, without looking, stepped on him, and then fell on top. Penalty. Silly and avoidable, but a penalty. The surprise came when Dimitrovic he traveled 80 meters to catch the ball. He was going to throw it. Was surprised until Melero
Lopez. Oblak smiled. But he was serious. So much so that he marked him, deceiving his ‘colleague’. 1-0 for Eibar and Dimitrovic goalkeeper … and scorer.

The goal left something touched to Atlético. The left band of Carrasco it was the only way for the mattress box to approach the local area. The Belgian tried again and again, making suffer Water well, but his insistence was not enough. Saul (improved) I tried to play fast in the middle, Lemar he offered himself and Llorente struggled. Above, belt I was not fine and Suarez no balls reached him. El Cholo ordered to warm up I gave it, in a warning for those in the field, and because he was considering going to the classic 4-4-2 because of the problems he had. The absence of Koke, Clear.

As time went by, Atlético grew. And Eibar lowered in its momentum. belt had a volley but did not dare. In the second yes, and his shot grazed the crossbar. She was the only one from Madrid until the 40th minute, in a throw-in, the faith of Llorente and the success of Suarez they leveled the scales. The Madrid player took off quickly, but after a cross by Correa, the ball was left to Sergio
Alvarez for clearance. And there was already Llorente to press. Reject that it was left to the Uruguayan, who heeled, sent it to the network in a quality auction. For that he signed for Atlético.

From there to rest, Eibar went back to put one more march, and the rojiblancos had to suffer. Especially on his right, with Savic acting as a fire extinguisher with a Vrsaljko that must continue to pick up pace in the face of the uncertainty generated by the Trippier.

Simeone He wanted to move things from minute 15. And he did it during vacation time. Doubly. Put in Joao
Felix and Torreira and withdrew to belt and Lemar. Strengthen the environment with the Uruguayan, with Llorente helping Vrsaljko on the right, and give more quality to the attack. A priori, good bet after what was seen in the first act. As was also the Eibar, which came out as at the beginning. To bite. The script was repeated, with the Basques being superior to the Madrilenians, who could not find the formula. Arbilla, of lack, and Bigas, in a corner, they threatened an Atlético who did not generate anything and who did not notice the substitutions. And there was a quarter of an hour left. Special chapter for Melero Lopez. Eibar had 18 fouls at that point. Not a single yellow. So it is also difficult to create something.

The first warning for the locals arrived in 82 ', when Arbilla knocked down Suarez when he went alone before Dimitrovic after a rejection. Olivera was close, but it may well have been red. The lack, on the front, sent her up Carrasco. The good one was Joao
Felix, which you received in the area of Suarez and hit it down, next to the stick, but there it stretched Dimitrovic to avoid the 1-2.

Atlético wanted more, with more desire than playing. And a punt was a golden ball for Suárez, who won the race at Arbilla and was planted in the area. The armorer defender put his leg in, without much need. Penalty. The Uruguayan assumed responsibility. In the 90 '. And he threw it Panenka, down the middle.

Yes Dimitrovic He threw the first, so he executed the second. He went to the bench (stands), congratulated by his teammates, with Kondogbia in the countryside. More muscle to support the result.

It was not the best Atlético match. Possibly one of the gravest in the championship. A brave Eibar deserved more. It is difficult to win with so little in Ipurua. But have to Luis Suarez is still a lot. And the Uruguayan wants this League.
