0-1. 2’. Tete.

1-2. 79’. Diego Gama scored the goal with an assist from Amath.

An important and hard-earned victory from Atlético de Madrid who controlled the match at will from the beginning. Tete scored the first goal in the first two minutes. The home team, who played this match with limited options to move forward, tied the match midway through the first half. In the second half, Armando de la Morena's team took the field to win the game. Diego Gama, who had substituted Rober and had been playing for eight minutes, scored the final 1-2 from a great assist by Amath.

Sensational path from our Youth League team, in which at least, they will qualify for the round of 16 like they did last season. The objective now is to beat Olympiacos on the 26th in order to be first in our group, which would allow Armando's team to play at home in the knockout stage, which will be played as a single match.
