Tie at Mestalla

Atlético de Madrid began the match strong, trying to get ahead against a Valencia that responded. Correa was the first to warn with a shot that was cleared by Neto. Then, half an hour in, Vietto had the clearest chance for our team with a drive that was slightly high, after a pass from Thomas. Vietto also had the last chance of the first half but his shot was high.

In the second half, Atlético continued insisting and the chances kept coming. First it was Carrasco the one that forced Neto to interve and later it was Correa and Nico Gaitán who finished but their shots were saved by the keeper. Ultimately, a tie against a difficult rival. Good defensive work of the team and they created occasions to score that Valencia’s keeper saved.
