Odegaard stops Atlético

• Narration: So we live the game
• LaLiga: This is the classification

It was not fierce, it was not solid, it was not effective. It was almost nothing Atlético in San Sebastián, surpassed by mysticism and especially by the football of the Royal Society in the re-release of Anoeta, now renamed as Reale Arena. There Simeone arrived as an undefeated leader and left defeated, wounded in his pride and with a shock scare when Oblak had to withdraw from the grogui field after receiving a ball in the face. One Saturday afternoon to forget the mattress set, just four days after a new edition of the Champions League with the visit of Juventus, a nightmare, to the Metropolitan. [Narration and statistics: 2-0]

All the hardships of Atletico were fun for the best Real Sociedad of the season, whose purpose of amendment after his hard defeat at San Mamés was reflected in a very complete game. The reopening of the old Anoeta, already without those athletic tracks that for a long time hindered, ended up being a party animated by a master of bell ceremonies. It was Martin Odegaard the hero txuriurdin, a footballer who grows every game he plays. He did it for the goal and also because with his movements between the lines he demolished the usual defensive consistency of Simeone's, unknown from start to finish.

Simeone took several lessons from the defeat in San Sebastián. Apparently yesterday, Koke and Saul form a better pair of midfielders in theory than in practice. Over there began to lose the shock Atlético and there ended up losing despite Llorente's entry after the break to correct the error. After what was seen before Real, it does not seem easy for Simeone to bet on four strikers in the same lineup. He won't do it against Juventus on Wednesday, that's for sure.

That provision not only punished Atlético in defense, but also gave it a greater offensive presence before a fairly renewed Real with respect to the first League games. Both by names and by attitude, since those of Alguacil raised a meeting full of intensity and consistency, perhaps the main defects so far of a team that is left over from individual quality.

Oblak, as always, was the savior of Atlético in the first half, repelling with a foot a shot from Oyarzabal, after a pass from Isak between Savic's legs. It was one of the few scoring chances of a first half in which Real dominated a lot but finished off a bit, while Cholo was exchanging the position of his strikers in search of some weakness of his rival that he never found.

At least, the Argentine became aware of his team and after the break he removed a missing Lemar to strengthen the center of the field with Llorente. A logical change, much more than the following, just ten minutes after the break: Correa by Joao Felix. Coincidentally or not, Real scored both of his goals just minutes after the Portuguese left the field. The first was achieved by Odegaard, after looking for a hole in the front and taking a shot he took at Savic before entering the goal. The second, three minutes later, was marked by the debutante Monreal, quick and ready to take advantage of a loose ball in the small area.

In that shot, the ball hit Oblak's face very violently. So much so that, seeing him grogui, the doctors ordered his imminent change. Already with Adam in the field, the Real lowered the revolutions and Atlético, led by Koke in that section, approached the goal of the Real. There, an ex like Moyá intervened masterfully to deny the goal to Vitolo and Giménez on two consecutive occasions and definitely tie the triumph txuriurdin.
