Jan
Oblak was one of the great protagonists of the victory of the
Atlético de Madrid before him Deportivo Alavés. The goalkeeper stopped a penalty in the 85th minute of the game that would have left his team without two points that could end up being key in the fight for the title.
“Well, I've always said that no one understands penalties. Sometimes you stop a lot, I remember when four seasons ago I stopped four of the six that they threw at me and lately not one … You are not happy with that. Luckily I stopped it, it was a penalty in the last minutes and we got the three points, “said the goalkeeper in Movistar +.
The play came from an elbow from Savic completely unnecessary. “If they interpret that it is a penalty, then it is very bad luck because Savic I sure did not want to hit him and on the line of the area … the ball went out. I would give it but without wanting to. If the referee whistles it is, if not, it is not. I am not the one who can decide that. But it has been due to very bad luck that we have had ”, he explained about this matter.
“Last Wednesday we were eliminated from ChampionsWe were very excited, but we did not do enough to pass in both games. Always, after an elimination, the following weekend is difficult. The three points were very important, the Real
Madrid and the Barça they are strong, the Seville it's strong … We don't look at them, we look at ourselves. The most important thing was this match. After the selections we already have ten finals. You have to go game by game ”.
“It is my seventh year here. There are parties that you suffer. The DNA of Athletic it has some of that, of suffering, but in the end it is what makes football beautiful. You don't know what will happen. Of course we all want to resolve the games before, score three goals but with 1-0 are three points which is what counts in the end, “he said.
