best leagues in the world I'm talking of course about La Liga it's Atletico Madrid against espanol well Derek as is always the case the team that dominates Midfield will be the team that controls the flow of the game and that for me is the area that's key today not the best clearance K can he take advantage really good piece of goalkeeping [Applause] there this is the starting lineup for Atletico Yan oblak stands between the posts Marcos yente starts alongside kok in central Midfield and so many different ways to configure an attack in this case it'll be two men up front well the referee decides not to reach for his pocket at this early stage well I thought he might book him there but in the end I think he's got that right [Applause] Bia and a good challenge to bring that attack to an end Gman aguardo oh he's left his marker for dead oh it's a superb challenge very very timely Alvarez well that's how to keep the opposition at [Applause] Bay plenty of players waiting in the middle Molina yente onto Koke and back to K oh surely and a goal that is a very bright start perfect way to open [Applause] well I have to say he's done really well here he's in the right place and then a decent finish that's a good [Applause] goal One n then [Applause] Jose graa aguardo moving forward [Applause] effectively that is a very fine challenge in difficult circumstances throw in given and he has options available reading it well just the challenge that was required nowel Molina Alvarez plenty to like about this Atletico move K it was a menacing attack but tided [Applause] up m aguardo what can he do with it now but really sticking to the task defensively they might be able to get in now oh that's a super piece of Defending Mia [Applause] Jose graa well nothing comes of the attack when all is said and done [Applause] K Ray Neo a bit wasteful from Atletico [Applause] deol tried to really get at the opposition here but the danger averted for [Applause] now rildo yente opportunity determined defending Crossing Opportunity credit to them for winning back possession will he finish full marks to the keeper well what a reaction from the goalkeeper such a good save in the end [Applause] can he deliver it with accuracy and a bit short with the clearance gives it a go pretty routine there for the goalkeeper [Applause] Len Mo Marcos juren Alvarez gasman and that's a very good Parry could be Troublesome Ray Neo that was going [Music] in they take it short can't it back [Applause] well they stopped them in their tracks Rodrigo de clear to see who got the last touch so a throw in it'll [Applause] be C it's there for him a smart stop here [Applause] short Corner [Applause] [Applause] taken olivan [Applause] graa and threading it through strong hand on that one did well to clear it away p and it wasn't taxing for the keeper Atletico seeding [Applause] possession well good run and good ball [Applause] [Applause] control and defending as a unit [Applause] man giving the ball to the opposition that time and he's piecing him here he takes aim and did just enough defensively Molina Len [Applause] Gman kok with it comfortable on the ball moving it Forward here Atletico well it came to nothing in the end Bia Now options are plenty oh great [Applause] defending Molina and given away by Atletico Jose graa doing well to keep possession well they couldn't quite muster a real threat rildo de setting off perhaps a little bit too much [Applause] here Marcos yente oh he's through here and a goal it is such a big moment for Atletico Madrid who are well on course for Success well here it is again the through ball is wonderfully executed and when he gets onto it he decides to go for power it's a really emphatic finish which gives the keeper no chance well he looks really pleased doesn't he his side have been really good today so the ball rolling again at 2N agu Gomez with it graa ball with CI Gomez well they'll be happy to have regained [Applause] possession well that one has promise Ray Neo onto C is this the moment oh yes it's gone in and now a chance for them to Rebel in the moment well just watch this again ur's pass is inch perfect and what a strike from Griezmann he just smashes it past the keeper that's a top class [Applause] finish now continuing with the action Atletico well on Top This is starting to get out of hand G agu but he keeps going keeping possession of the ball with authority Rodrigo def [Applause] fall Marcos jente has it Molina Alvarez Ray Neo and a corner for Atletico and played [Applause] Short is it going to be and a goal he's doubled as total for the day in superb scoring form well I'm sure the replay will confirm he got a touch on this which he does so he'd be really upset that he didn't keep it out well that's just what Simeone wanted he has to be happy with this performance well this is threatening to get out of hand just look at the score line [Applause] aguo Rodrigo deul and a good challenge to bring that attack to an end Bia good physical [Applause] play Atletico have once [Applause] again rildo deol well when you have the lead you can play in this manner keeping the ball like this fine ball from antoan griesman nowel Molina gasman and still trying to get the shot off just the clearance that was called for there to win it [Applause] back how could he take them on and beat them but a good piece of Defending to bring it to an end well approaching halime on the home side very much in charge here Stuart your thoughts well what a first half performance this has been so far they look like scoring every time they go forward the positional rotation the ability of players to run with the ball and the passing have been brilliant let's hope to see a similar display in the second 45 oh what a clearance Under Pressure had to react and did well they're almost inviting them to come at them and given away by Atletico a smart stop [Applause] here graa into the advanced position using his strength to Shield the ball oh beating his opponent with [Applause] ease aguardo happy to take on the shot keeper getting the touch oh a goal and an own goal at that well not part of the script was it well no question about this as you can see this will go down as an own goal [Applause] [Applause] goals and plentiful Supply 4-1 currently rildo now plays with a positional sense that is second to none [Applause] well breaking at PACE is always a possibility now can they take advantage well disappointing end to the move [Applause] Rodrigo de just the challenge that was required oh in with a chance and he's gone for power so close to finding the net [Applause] K deol keeping possession of the ball with authority Rodrigo deall Ray Neo difficult to stop [Applause] him well that's a foul and it sets up a free kick in a dangerous position [Applause] on [Applause] he'll have a go here oh a glorious Save By The Keeper and nothing wrong with that free kick either [Applause] well they're going for the short one k the supporters think it's on just can't get it past [Applause] him gets in the way once more we've had the official word that will be a minimum of two added minutes they've regained possession Molina what can he do with it now Gman and how about that for a save clears it away grias man looking for someone to play it to and he's made it a brace for himself The Defenders just unable to stay with him and he's having a field day well here we can see it again he's shown outstanding Vision to find the perfect cutback and the Finish is just as good that's an excellent [Applause] goal well that's just what Simeone wanted he has to be happy with this [Applause] performance and so it is the first half has come to an end here in the Spanish [Applause] Capital well we all know how naturally skillful antoan gasman is Stewart trying to stop him no easy task well when he's in this sort of form he's almost unplayable even when he's tightly marked he just seems to buy himself that little bit of space to get his shots away he's also taking his chances really [Applause] well so back underway and an intriguing second half in [Applause] Prospect it's opening up for them and kept out by gimenez in the opinion of the referee that is a [Applause] penalty and it goes a well taken [Applause] penalty well just look at this again it's a great penalty right into that top Corner absolutely no chance for the keeper there well it's been such a one-sided game you just wonder how many more they can add K well shielding the ball admirably rildo and did well to keep hold of it must be it was on its way in [Music] [Applause] but he's gone short with it [Applause] [Applause] P olivan well not giving the opposition a look in that strong play and the degree of difficulty wasn't all that high in terms of the save and the referee playing advantage well the advantage wasn't helping them and so now they get the free [Applause] kick that's a good looking ball well really it had to be further away from the [Applause] [Applause] keeper Marcos yente Rodrigo deul Marcos jente has it Jimenez Len Mo deul rildo Rodrigo deul keeping it moving dynamically oh mischievous attempt well a chip that went ay well maybe it was the right option but his technique led him down there Molina maros ente has it holding on to what they have is the priority apparently physically strong and secure on the ball graa genuine chance he's blocked it [Applause] kok Molina Marcos yente nowel Molina maros jente has it Rodrigo deul now griesman long way out and you cannot are you with a hattick simply Unstoppable [Applause] today well just look at this strike again he hits it so well that's a great bit of skill no wonder he's pleased with himself [Applause] well that's just what he wanted he has to be happy with this performance they've been good [Applause] [Music] [Applause] today a foul it most certainly was free kick given nice looking pass oh tremendous header that time but the goalkeeper was there rildo kok with it wasteful from atleti graa aguo Jose graa oh big opportunity and in oh yes exactly what they were hoping to produce they've delivered the [Applause] goal well as you can see he doesn't mess about here does he he's strong well balanced and skillful that's a top class finish well sadly we have to conclude that this hasn't really been a contest but all credit to any side committed to scoring goals like this Marcos yente r [Applause] and deflected beyond the by line so a corner here and time for the change [Applause] [Music] now Gman task with taking the corner and the problem not completely solved blocking it he'll be delighted to have won the ball having made that difficult [Applause] Challenge and into the last 30 minutes now that's very effective use of advantage in favor of Atletico kok ente and return to kok coming he put it away and a goal there he is at the Double they just can't subdue him well as you can see his movement is really good which then makes the Finish look easy that's a decent goal that's for sure well he looks really pleased doesn't he he's side have been really good [Applause] today bad Challenge and now it's up to the referee in terms of what to do [Applause] next well he'd been warned before and now he's been booked and he's under big pressure now he's going to have to tread really carefully here [Applause] [Music] good physical play he's going forward well here [Applause] Marcos yente now well Molina making use of his physical strength to hang on to it well nicely cut out now what can they do with the ball that's really good and effective physical play [Applause] olivan but he's got past his man good defending in the end and danger reverted for now nowel [Applause] Molina what was the chance they could get caught out on the break [Applause] here doing well to keep possession edu exposito that's a foul and it will be a potentially dangerous free kick well they've been getting get the substitute ready and now they will make the personel [Music] change an exquisitly taken free kick but no end product well he has such good technique I expected him to score there but it was still a great effort well the keeper was hoping someone might get on the end of it but it will be a throwi [Applause] in really determined play to hang on to it you can't really tackle like that and expect to get away with it booking to come you would think and he does produce the yellow card yeah it certainly deserved a yellow it's a poor challenge you have to [Applause] say well straight into the meat of the penalty area not messing around with that clearance determined [Applause] defending Leno rildo [Applause] Leno kok with it Marcos yente gesman just sliding back a bit to get on the ball had no interest in losing possession Rodrigo deul well that's how to keep the opposition at Bay aguardo m not the pass he had in mind now maybe room here for the Counterattack Under Pressure doesn't seem to be bothering him Alvarez good looking move foiling his opponent [Applause] completely 20 minutes remaining well that's really strong play to keep hold of the ball Has the strength to hang on to it well good run this now what can he do with it edu [Applause] exposito strong play here well terrific defending to stop them [Applause] progressing and on the back of that particular challenge will the referee let the matter rest [Applause] there well he's gone into the book when he was late and he deserved a booking for that Marcos yente kok with it maros ente has it well doesn't have to do it on his own counterattacking chance Bia well not giving the opposition a look in that's strong play M he's protecting it effectively [Applause] Molina and the ball's gone there's determination there for all to see likes to run with the ball at his [Applause] feet the concession of a corner here [Applause] and there's the delivery now the pressure from his opponent was [Applause] [Applause] [Music] telling l [Applause] maros jente has it rildo Rodrigo def fall that's the kind of shielding play you expect from him and Atletico get the advantage from the referee a goal he's dispatched it much to the sheer Delight of the fans well it's a very simple finish in the end but his movement was really good he just found himself a bit of space in the box when it mattered most and if you enjoy high-scoring contests this has been the game for you Mia doing everything possible to keep possession H clear deflection off the defender there [Applause] now sending it in still a chance terrific piece of anticipation oh the referee points to the sport penalty [Applause] and the penalty is converted I don't think anyone really questioned [Applause] him well let's take another look he chooses the right way to dive but it's a good penalty cuz it's the height that beats him as it goes above him [Applause] vildo gallager kok with it well the game ebing away but the result not apparently in any doubt Atletico have been been superb Stuart well the result has never really been in doubt has it they've created so many chances with some brilliant attacking play I think they've looked an outstanding team today well the referee has taken note of his name and number well I think he can count himself a bit unlucky there but it was certainly a foul [Applause] delivered into the box well not cleared away completely and problem solved for now pado it's with salvi Sanchez great strong tackle throw in [Applause] forthcoming aguardo well there's a really stylish piece of [Applause] running just the challenge that was required rildo Alexander surot and strong play here but just like that possession changes hands h and it crossed the by line a goal kick as a result [Applause] nowel Molina now kareah struggling to keep the [Applause] ball oliv [Applause] the inside route looks promising good physical play a good and fair challenge axel vitell Jimenez Lenor rildo Gallagher using his strength to Shield the ball moving forward effectively well disappointing end to the move and the counter looks on here options available r [Applause] Conor gallager oh fine play and maybe it'll set something up and he's made it a brace for himself The Defenders just unable to stay with him and he's having a field day well I have to say he's done really well here he's in the right place and then a decent finish that's a good goal [Applause] [Applause] salvi Sanchez P really doing a fine job of protecting the ball he's in control of the situation really fine play to keep possession Sanchez Loro Conor Gallagher Axel vitel maros jente has it kok [Applause] oh good work by The Keeper taken [Applause] short the could be trouble here he's already been cautioned and he is going to pay the ultimate price well when you're on a yellow card it was a silly challenge he just lost his discipline [Applause] there fed over towards the back post and still dangerous and defensive play to be applauded doing well to keep possession it certainly wasn't a clean tackle and the referee has got to book him I think and the yellow card for that Stewart and he's going to have to be careful now that was a silly challenge [Music] [Applause] good distribution and a decent delivery oh a really good header but the goalkeeper there's a cover up atletico's corner Keen to take it short here ente decided to come in from the flank really good piece of goalkeeping [Applause] there he's protecting it well Conor Gallagher is this the moment and there is the goal he's found the net Jo unconfined [Applause] well here's the replay and he shows great awareness to play this through ball and he makes the Finish Look So Easy what a good goal that is [Applause] at M Ball's gone a really good pass well that's really strong play to keep hold of the [Applause] ball aguardo [Applause] nicely saved and that is that the final whistle is sounded and music to the ears of fans of the culture Aros
