Since joining City, Haaland has played in 17 games in which his team lost. And scored just one goal. More proof of his dependence on the team's condition. Salah, for example, has six goals in 20 lost games during this period. Lewandowski has seven in 24, Mbappe - five in 19. Kane is in the best shape - he has scored 11 in 28 lost games.

Two high-class flashes, both with Brahim and Mbappe, could give Real a 2-0 lead in the opening minutes. Then Atalanta came back and locked Real in the penalty area in the second half. True, with almost no chances. The sum of quality approaches does not necessarily lead to a penalty, Atalanta was lucky that Kolasinac showed Lookman and De Ketelaere how to be tricky in the penalty area.

The season is gaining momentum, but one big title has already been contested. Benfica will become the world champion in the game against Atlético during the 24/25 season.
By last season, Atlético had generally ceased to astonish us with its chaotic play. Often conceding four goals in a match, it even suffered five from Real in the Super Cup. But chaos implies a certain amplitude of play, mutual sharpness. Here, there was no reciprocity whatsoever. One-sided castration of the most macho team on the planet. Zero shots on target. Less than 0.5 xG.
I want to signal the performance of Fredrik Aursnes, who was outstanding in the role of "tuttocampista." His deep and conscious interpretation of three positions-foundational right eight, right winger, and ten-along with spontaneous successful appearances in two or three other positions-was remarkable.
I think Simeone would have signed such a player right after the match if he could, and he will be able to.

I remember teams, and there were quite a few of them, that won the championship and played defensively. But I don’t remember a single champion that played dominantly and attackingly, but went into defense when they took the lead. Arsenal has a tradition of this in big matches.
Yesterday against Liverpool, they didn’t create anything while they were leading. They rolled back, wasted time. Although they could have stepped on their throats and mercilessly finished them off. But Arteta allowed Liverpool to get back into the game (Slot and Sobosali also tried), feel comfortable and fight back. In recent seasons, Arsenal missed the championship by 6 and 3 points – maybe those points symbolized a lack of rapacity and courage

Today, the legendary German footballer ANDRE SCHÜRRLE celebrates his 34th birthday!
Andryukha was a tough wreck for Bayer, won the Premier League with Chelsea, scored against Brazil in the 2014 World Cup that Germany won, and at the end of his career, in his unique style, he helped Spartak take an honorable seventh place in the 2019/20 season.
