“A lot of VAR and little alcohol”
By the time Angel Correa executed Netto with intrigue, working the red-and-white miracle in the middle of the desert, Simeone's jacket had a good few minutes left in anger on one of the seats on his bench. The Argentine technician had everything left over. And in shirt sleeves, perhaps for the first time, he ran to meet his angel. Correa's right hand had just opened the door of a title to this renewed Attic of transition. And all thanks to the fact that, as in the old days (Lase Mnich or London), he managed to remain standing despite the stubbornness of his ogre Leo Messi. Among Argentines he walked the matter.
So are the things of faith. Because after receiving the tremendous onslaught of Neto and being badly wounded on the grass, shortly after starting the duel, Correa, the boy who has been in fashion at this Atlantic, resisted leaving. His body was sore and limping for a few minutes, but he ended up gesturing to the bench, when Koke was preparing to disembark, which Simeone interpreted instantly. The goalkeeper fell on me and I had a very strong blow to the knee; Luckily I could continue, I remembered in the Movistar Plus microphones, already with the qualification for the final of this first Super Cup of Spain to four. It was very strange, it was very hot. The field was very heavy. Fortunately, we were able to reverse the situation, the forward continued.
Correa gave Koke the first goal of the game, walked around on the penalty to Vitolo and sealed his team's ticket for Sunday's decisive duel (7 pm) against Real Madrid. His awakening, again, raised the Atlantic. His last four games have resulted in three goals and three assists and, also, in four straight wins that have allowed his people to recover the color of his face, opt for the first tournament of the course and scare away many of the fears when Barcelona puts him in front. The best sparks of his team this season have coincided with those of the albiceleste.
The tenth target of Morata
The last quarter of an hour appeared the heart, the claw and the belief that it could win, Simeone sustains, with his black jacket, the same one that he had thrown after the VAR annulled the goal of Piqu, yield again in your torso. “I took off my jacket because it was hot,” he said with a smile in the press room. Things of superstition. Cholo almost died when he saw how Jan Oblak Miraculously respond to the Barca siege. The Slovenian stops, as in the last league night against Levante, allowed theirs to face that last sprint to fight for the third Spanish Super Cup in their history. The second goal annulled to them, that of Piqu, was key. From our frustration, they became frustrated and their enthusiasm became our enthusiasm, he recalled.
A strange night on the lawn of King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah where Marcos Llorente I felt important again after pushing the Atlantic in the last quarter of an hour of the comeback. And that came by the injury of KokeThe rojiblanco captain, who reappears after injury, entered the break, scored at 18 seconds and left again touched at 28 minutes. That was when Llorente's time came.
I also never lost faith Morata, who signed his tenth of the season as a penalty, after leaving Vitolo hand in hand with Neto. The work is done in half, because you have to play a final. Now it's time to rest because being a very big effort against Real Madrid, explained the top scorer of the rojiblanco team, than fighting for his first title in rojiblanco.
The Atletico broke his curse with the goal and was blunt at the right time. In time to meet another ending. And all, thanks to faith. That same ingredient that has always accompanied the baton of Simeone.
