Media League in three games

EI Atlético made merits to win the derby, but his lack of success before the goal It deprived him of the victory against the Madrid team. Simeone's team scored one point and has a distance of three and five points with respect to Barcelona and Madrid, its main persecutors. And Atlético has now three games what can worth half League: Athletic, Getafe and Alavés, just before the national team break. The Cholo men continue with their motto from match to match, but inside the dressing room they have very clear ideas: if Atlético adds those nine points there will be taken a giant step in the fight for take the title garter belt. In addition, the Madrid team does not have to leave the capital of Spain, since their meeting as a visitor is in Getafe. Between these games the pass in Champions against Chelsea in London.

The first match It is played by Atlético this Wednesday against Athletic (7:00 p.m.), I find that the rojiblanco team has postponed. It is a date marked in red by the Madrid team, since neither Barça nor Madrid have a game and Simeone's set is in conditions to extend the lead by three more points. Winning Athletic would drive Barcelona away six points and to Madrid to Eight, a distance that would start to be considerable at this point in the competition.

Atlético takes the match almost a final, although no one speaks openly like that to refer to the crash. For this confrontation Simeone has all his players available, except Giménez and Herrera, who did not participate in yesterday's training session.

In the two days that remain for the break, Atlético will have to travel to Getafe Y receive Alavés. The Barcelona, for his part, he plays in his stadium against him Huesca and travel to San Sebastián to measure up to the Real society. The Real Madrid plays at home against him Elche and travels to Vigo to play against Celta. Nobody considers Getafe and Alavés affordable rivals, far from it, but the calendar will be much more demanding with Atlético after the break, with Sevilla and Betis as the next rivals. After the national team stoppage will remain for play ten days of LaLiga, the final stretch of the championship. And Atlético wants to get there with a mattress important of points.

The derby left some good news for the rojiblancos: Luis Suárez scored again and he had more opportunities to make a double, so he is back in the place where a center forward has to be; Carrasco played a good game, although he accused of being some inactive encounters and Koke also took the team's game with a good level. For seventy minutes Atlético carried the weight of the game, had the game and the chances.

On the other hand, there is a fact that plays in favor of Atlético in this national team break. The South American players will not travel at the end of the month with their selections. Luis Suárez, Giménez, Torreira, Lodi or Felipe will not attend their national teams, since the qualifying rounds that were to be played on these dates for the World Cup in Qatar have been suspended.
