Giuliano Simeone has become accustomed to deciding matches in the first minutes. He did it in Salzburg a week ago to put Atlético directly in the round of 16 of the Champions League and repeated him against Getafe to take his team to the semifinals of the Copa del Rey.
He had barely overcome the quarter of an hour and Giuliano had already scored both goals They sent the tie to sleep. The first, to finish off a center of Javi Galán. The second, at the end of a counterattack that Julián Álvarez led and that Paul ended up putting him on his foot to score the second.
Giuliano has long been has shown that it is much more than the chief’s sonbut also now it seems willing to prove that it dominates all records. Although none makes him as different as the faith he shows in each play and that moves from that right wing than to the entire team.
Some more Giulian could have marked, which began the second part like the first. And he did it, but Javi Galán was advanced when he received the ball before giving it to the other Simeone so he could get his triplet.
Atlético did not want to waste time, which on Saturday has the derby against Real Madrid. I wanted to liquidate the game as soon as possible and have the quiet tie. AND It was applied to search the third long before Samu Lino got it When the break was approaching.
Julián Álvarez and Griezmann were close to getting it, but Letacek, the goalkeeper of the Cup in the Getafe, avoided it when the Frenchman tried. The Argentine was not necessary to finish a counterattack that he sent out when he seemed convicted of being a goal. Musso, the Atlético goalkeeper, saw the game from the bottom without intervening much more than any spectator. But when he had to show his hands, as in a shot by Carles Pérez from outside the area, he did.
The Getafe had against the result, much, and the story, that inability that drags to win Simeone. Little mattered to show off his new signings from Villarreal, Juan Bernat and Terrats, from the beginning. It was played in the stadium and in the way Atlético likes, which hindered his ball exit and that he was close to taking advantage of some of Alderete’s mistakes at the beginning of the play.
Atlético did not miss time to miss Barrios, who stayed out of the call for an indisposition. The moments when the canterano cannot play are the ones that Koke now takes advantage of to get into the starting eleven. But the captain is always willing. The years go by but it has not lost the ability to always be where your team needs it most.
The captain endured in the field while Simeone was giving rest to some players who now have more minutes than him. Giuliano and Julián Álvarez, the first. And with them, to Javi Galán, who returned after his injury and has gone from being invisible to being essential from the derby of the first round against Real Madrid.
Then it was the turn of Griezmann to play Sulloth for a while. It was about giving rest to 7 and Give minutes to 9 so that you do not lose the habit acquired in recent months of marking When he enters from the bench. It was not the Norwegian but Correa, one that takes years to solve matches from the bench who found it first in a shot from the edge of the area.
Then, yes, the Norwegian completed The win on a play that they put together between Correa and him and that took counterpart to the defense of Getafe. But everything had already done Giulian in 17 minutes.
