Draw at Real Sociedad-Atletico Madrid with… the home team winning. The “battle” in San Sebastian for the 9th matchday of La Liga has ended 1-1with the Basques punishing the “rojiblancos” in the final stretch.
Susic’s golar with a remote-controlled shooter outside the area he shaped the final score and gave the point to the Basques, while rightly denying two of the visitors. The recent trauma of the treble that Simeone’s side suffered from Benfica in the Champions League was open. Thus, the Argentinian coach overdid it with the defensive approach he took in the match and kept his team far behind.
To implement this plan and go more defensively than it usually works Atlético Alvarez’s very quick goal also helped. The international forward caught a diagonal shot and beat the opposing goalkeeper in the 52nd minute.
From then on, Atletico didn’t think much about the attack, while Sociedad missed few chances, with Oblak making a very important contribution to the fact that the visitors kept the “nil” behind until the 84th minute.
