On the other side of the Pyrenees, Atletico de Madrid Diego Simeone went to the lawn of Arenteiro, this Thursday at 9 p.m., on the occasion of the second round of the King’s Cup. Released from the 32nd finals of this same competition by the Cornella club, last season, the Colchoneros wanted to avoid a new affront against a resident of the Spanish fourth division. In a particularly tense start to the meeting, marked by the expulsion of Javi Rey, the local coach, Marquitos managed, despite everything, to unblock the situation (1-0, 42nd).
Led to the score, the Colchoneros did not doubt for long. On penalty and just before returning to the locker room, Yannick Carrasco brought the two teams up (1-1, 45 + 1st). In the second half, Morata missed him, again on penalty, the opportunity to restore the advantage to his people but it was finally the young Pablo Barrios who allowed Atléti to go back in front (2-1, 76th). In the dying seconds, Yannick Carrasco offered himself a double to make the break (3-1, 90 + 1st) and ensure qualification for Diego Simeone’s men.
