The Athletic of Madrid went back to yield in a derbi against the Real Madrid. The 'colchoneros' follow without annotating a goal in front of the whites from February of 2019, when Griezmann attained it
This Saturday, the Real Madrid defeated to the Athletic with an evident superiority. The ones of Zinedine Zidane went back to win them the game to Diego Pablo Simeone and already are six the derbis in which the 'colchoneros' do not achieve to win. This time, wasted a big opportunity to strengthen his leadership and allowed to the whites go back to put in the fight for winning LaLiga Santander.
There is a quite alarming data in the recent history of the derbis that has to see with the difficulties of the Athletic of Madrid for marking him goals to his big rival of the capital of Spain. And it is that the last so much that the picture rojiblanco achieved against the Real Madrid was in February of 2019 and was born of the boots of Antoine Griezmann to pass of Ángel Correa.
A lot it has rained since, since it does a year and half that the French forward saw the T-shirt of the FC Barcelona in a traspaso that closed with the payment of the clause of rescission by part of the Barcelona, that credited 120 million euros to the club rojiblanco. Since, it seems that the Athletic of Madrid and Antoine Griezmann miss this period in which, together, went them better to both.
With the Frenchman in his rows, the Athletic of Madrid himself achieved to plant face to the Real Madrid and even defeat him in numerous occasions. In fact, the last victory of the cojunto of Diego Pablo Simeone against the Real Madrid traces back to the 4-2 in the Supercopa of Europe of 2018. In this duel, Antoine Griezmann did not mark any so much, but yes had an indisputable weight in the team.
The Real Madrid improves feelings
The Athletic of Madrid, with an approach a so much rare of Diego Pablo Simeone by the absence of Saúl Ñíguez, gave wings to a Real Madrid that already approaches dangerously to the leadership of LaLiga Santander. The group rojiblanco did not know to take advantage of his good moment of form and the doubts of his opponent and allowed that him recortaran these three points that equalise the first places.
Given the circumstances, the FC Barcelona will have to begin to add of three in three if it does not want to see as they banish his options to win LaLiga Santander. The culés are still in half table far even of the places of Champions League, by what the urgencies tighten in the group of Ronald Koeman. In the meantime, the Real Madrid follows escalando places.
