Atlético de Madrid jumped to Balaídos with a team full of changes. The debut of Torreira, the new attacking couple formed by Diego Costa and Luis Suárez, the umpteenth opportunity to Lemar and a new defense in which Manu and Hermoso were in, stood out above the rest. A match that ended up winning 0-2 at Celta de Vigo.
OBLAK
Essential
He saved the team at key moments of the game. His stop to Santi Mina and Iago Aspas were key so that Celta did not get into the game.
TRIPPIER
Compliant
It was not one of his best games at Atlético de Madrid. Oblak was frowned upon for his lack of forcefulness within the area. Better games are expected from the Briton.
SAVIC
I laughed
He did not have an easy game against Celta who made it very difficult. However, he managed to end the team with a clean sheet.
BEAUTIFUL
Right
Good game for the central Madrid. He made sure that no one missed players like Felipe or Giménez.
MANU SÁNCHEZ
Memorable
He will never forget the match against Celta because he gave his first assist in the First Division. Nothing more and nothing less than Luis Suárez.
TORREIRA
Epic
It seems incredible that he made his debut at Atlético. He played a great game that ended lame because he was injured at the end and there were no changes left. Limping but ended up on the field.
KOKE
Rudder
He placed himself ahead of Torreira in search of carrying the handle of the team. He lacked continuity in his game.
BELT
Stripped
Everything was left on the field of play. This time he was busy more defensive than offensive.
LEMAR
Sniper
His best actions came from set pieces. He brushed past an Olympic goal but his shot crashed off the crossbar.
DIEGO COSTA
Gafado
He played a good game but left injured. A shame because it seemed that his best version was returning …
LUIS SUÁREZ
Bullfighter
The first time he had, he put her in the cage, which is what counts in football. As soon as the second half started, he could make it 0-2.
THE CHANGES
FELIPE
Risky
He saw a yellow one shortly after leaving and had options even to see the second. He helped keep a clean sheet.
JOAO FÉLIX
Sparkles
He touched a real goal but his shot went to the crossbar. Carrasco headed the net for the rebound.
MARCOS LLORENTE
Muscle
He gave another air to the center of the field and was able to score after a good play from the whole team.
CARRASCO
Goal scorer
He made the 0-2 head, something unusual for him. He was the smartest when he went for the ball that was left dead after the ball that went to the crossbar by Joao Félix.
HERRERA
Balance
He came out to give balance to a team that needed to reinforce the core. After his entry, Atlético began to suffer less.
