Direct Narration and statistics
After the gale came the breeze.
Atlético runaway from the premiere, got stuck in El Alcoraz, where the wind never fails.
As if that overdose of goals three days ago had exhausted his magazine.
Huesca put enough on his part for all this to happen.
So that those of Simeone, in the discreet opening premiere of Luis Suárez, have to sit on the couch again.
The Barça wall never
rebelled
, they say there.
Not even in front of Joao Félix's wand, which is still intoned.
[Narration and statistics: Huesca 0 - Atlético 0]
And it is that, as if Atlético still remembered that last afternoon in El Alcoraz, back in January 2019, where he had to go through a thick fog, he appeared in Huesca with a phosphor yellow uniform.
There are probably few as dazzling as yours.
The locals, however, were not impressed.
On the contrary,
Míchel's
boys
clung to their mat, with order and discipline, as their coach warned in the previous one, waiting for an error from their adversary to open the door to their first victory after promotion.
The Japanese
Okazaki
was always prowling around there
, shaking the heart of Hermoso, in his debut as a headline.
And that his name has sounded like a bargaining chip throughout the preseason.
Until next Monday, there will still be a few days of rumors.
If that January 2019 match is remembered for
Lucas Hernández's
last goal
as a rojiblanco, for
Arias's
only target
, already settled in Leverkusen, or even for the debut of the young
Mollejo
, on the bench, this one, beyond the Atlético's clothing will be remembered for the first (and inconsequential) ownership of Luis Suárez.
His new story started with 20 minutes to remember and continued in El Alcoraz, in front of a Huesca that did not give him a single moment for respite.
The Uruguayan offered himself, shouted and gestured, every time that
Joao Félix
, with whom he could not agree on his debut, looked up in search of some solution in attack.
Beyond the long balls of
Saúl
or
Thomas
, there were hardly any.
The virtue of Huesca was to contain for almost an hour a team whose first staging was that of a gale.
Andrés Fernández did not flinch.
The ball belonged to Atlético, but the intrigue was put by the Aragonese team.
As usual, Simeone's first resource was
Ángel Correa
.
Because in traffic jam matters (and this one was), there are few like him.
At least at Atlético.
Even for Angel the matter was complicated.
At least it was a liberation for Joao Félix.
Suarez's forgiveness
In the local trench, the central
Siovas was
not only a giant for the athletic forwards, but also loomed menacingly in the
Oblak
area
, on each set piece.
The azulgranas remained firm in their purpose, although without giving up a lash as soon as they could.
The burly Greek defender was always the most direct solution for his team.
And in those it happened that, almost at game time, Joao Félix lit up the dark sky of Huesca with another of those sparks of genius.
It seems that this season you don't need a lot of rubbing your lamp to show yourself.
The Portuguese, exalted against Granada, took out the cue, adjusted his stick and discovered the back of the Huesca defense.
Luis Suárez was there, face to face with
Andrés Fernández
, who did not tremble at the forward's threats.
A few minutes ago Joao had woken up, leaving on the grass those streaks of crack that he, more than anyone, assures in this Atlético.
Suarez went to the bench biting his lip for the missed opportunity.
The night was closing in Huesca, while the rojiblancos were thrown into the mountains, trying to prevent those old traumas from the past from leaving their pockets half again.
It was not enough with that final avalanche that Huesca survived, which signed its third draw.
The goal, which seemed to have returned after that inaugural shock therapy, again denied Atlético a greeting.
