Sergio Kun Agüero penalti

Two goals from Argentine striker in the first half gave three vital points to Atletico. Deportivo was no match for Atletico and lacked punch for ninety minutes.

Atletico Madrid managed to plug the bleeding badly suffering Deportivopor winning the two goals to nil at the Vicente Calderon in a game dominated from start to finish. The mattress set was lord and master of the game throughout the first half, which had the ball at all times and in which Forlan missed a clear penalty committed by Aranzubía on Agüero. The Argentine striker was precisely the author of the two goals that gave the victory to his people, both made before the break. A superb solo run and well attended by Raul Garcia were the prelude to the first and second goal of the international Atletico in the crash. After the break, Lotina chose to vary the pattern of his team have achieved over the ball, albeit without adequate concern at any time Gea. Quique The intensity fell over after the interval and sought the ruling playing against. The victory became a boost for the Manzanares.

Win-win, that was all he was worth at Atletico Madrid to not exacerbate the crisis with the visit of Deportivo at the Vicente Calderon. The three straight losses totaling rojiblancos filled with nerves that costume, tier and senior management of the club. The unexpected and painful thud against Espanyol and Levante Aris made it clear that something was wrong, and that something was the defensive system mattress. Quique decided to sit for entrance Godín Domínguez. In front of the rear, Tiago and Raul Garcia formed the hub of creation and destruction of local game. Before them, a team that had managed to grow and leave the pit since Lotina placed a five-man defense. Galicia, which numbered more than eleven years without winning the Manzanares, came prepared to surrender the domain to its rival and trust your luck across the counter and its dangerous set pieces.

Thus, the party began with a dominant Atletico had primary objective scoring the first goal as soon as possible to force his rival to break the defensive fabric woven by their coach. Only had to wait five minutes for the wick is lit match through a clear penalty in Aranzubía on Aguero could lead to the expulsion of goalkeeper and could not transform Diego Forlan. No time to grieve and just three minutes later, Aguero again donning the costume of a hero to open the scoring after a superb individual move in what he did with the defense populated Coruña to the delight of the red and white parish. In this way, Quique gave a vital step to take the match by shred the script Galician team. At Lotina they had no choice but to change their style of play, gain control and discard the option to trust all the contras.

The expected reaction occurred visitor. Deportivo continued its defensive wall in the offensive plays of his rival and adding to the attack on the two lanes when he had the ball at his feet. Galician response had no effect, as was highly probable. Just before the half hour mark was reached Athletic's second goal with a free-kick from Forlan who finished encountering the club after a meritorious Aranzubía intervention. The Uruguayan enjoyed a few more chances before the end of the first half to extend the lead of their own, but the poor shooting and defense and goalkeeper eventually unhinge the front. He had come back Agüero to do justice in the face to break marker. A good pass in Raúl García depth to beat Argentina's served with surprising ease to a Aranzubía that was half way out and picked up the ball in the net for the second time in the match.

After the intermission, the game resumed with a substitution in the sport which involves also a change in the system of the Galician team. Common sense made Lotina leave your site Aythami Juan Dominguez to get a higher concentration of players at the center the field with the goal of having the ball more. Thus, the five-man defense was reduced to four and Lassad remained an island in the attack. This time it took effect on technical antidote visitor, who managed the balance more level providing more ball possession and control of his men. Atletico, aware of the course taken by the party sought to move after move a third goal to kill off the game and avoid problems down the stretch. The local perception was evident steal and get out quickly against an opponent who had the ball but not intimidated at all to De Gea.

Excessive relaxation of which he showed the home side for much of the second half did not please his parish, who came to his own whistle. The truth is that without whistles or with them, Atletico won the primary objective of the game, the victory. A win that is a boost for those of Manzanares, who will travel on Thursday to Germany looking at the miracle that will serve to seal their passage to the knockout phase of Europe League.

The Atletico Madrid president said that "the reality of all this is very clear and simple. We have three points, Villarreal has three more and the arbitrator will arbitrate and nothing has happened here."

Enrique Cerezo, Atletico Madrid's president, said today that the referee Rafael Ramirez Dominguez "was not successful" in the match between his team and Villarreal in El Madrigal (2-0), in which there were "three very clear penalty" and somewhat nullified the Argentine Sergio 'Kun' Agüero, "which was a goal."

"Unquestionably, the referee was not lucky. There were three very clear penalty and the goal of Aguero, who was ruled out for play, was scored, but that's football. If you do not whistle, the points fall where they must stay and playing away from home and did not whistle these penalti es, with three points, "he said.

"The referee, in part, in 4 or 5 minutes, the match was virtually eliminated," continued added.

Atletico president also was asked whether the club will use a possible punishment of Quique Sanchez Flores by the Competition Committee. "I have no idea because I still do not know if he will punish or not," concluded Cherry, referring to the two first acts of the meeting, a possible penalty to Portuguese Simao Sabrosa and a goal disallowed for offside Aguero.

"The reality of this is very clear and simple. We have three points, Villarreal has three more and the arbitrator will arbitrate and nothing has happened here," continued the president, who, asked if the club will show their complaint to the Spanish Football Federation, said: "What we have to do we will in due course as appropriate. "

The arbitrator also can make mistakes when writing the minutes

In that game he was expelled Quique Sanchez Flores, "once the first time," according to minutes of Ramírez Domínguez, adding: "When we entered the tunnel, turned to me saying: 'the goal has not been offside, the penalty very clear, this is outrageous. "Then he went to the field officer, said: 'ÑSiempre Like All lees at you, look the Umpire! ", rushing towards him and having to be detained by stadium security and members of both teams."

Quique denied these facts and Cerezo said: "If you say the coach and was the one who was with the referee will be. I was not there and I can not say. If the coach says that the record did not reflect what will be well" .

"The referee is wrong on three penalti es and also when writing the record can be wrong" added.

Atletico president also was asked whether the club will use a possible punishment of Quique Sanchez Flores by the Competition Committee. "I have no idea because I still do not know if he will punish or not," concluded

The Argentine, cramp, crucial to the team's disappointing Emery Before, he had failed four times very clear for the Very inspired Caesar

He had three options to look into the eyes of Caesar, all maneuvers product in your home beautiful, strangely obscured by an improper definition on who is not afraid there, those last few yards in the vast majority trembles own anxiety of the unknown. [Narration and Statistics: 4-1]

Kun does not usually do that in the past even hit the floor and made pitiful lawn hint of the change request. He held his last breath, snorted and grabbed the kidneys because I could not more. The ball found him in the small area, not just live the great screamers. He put his head and opened the game for Atletico, hitherto unable to overcome a Valencia playing with one less.

That story, that of playing with 10, Carlos Marchena was initiated and terminóPérez Burrull. Just put one foot in the camp, center of Valencia and the selection has already announced where he thought he had passed the party. He kicked aimlessly Simao, with Portuguese and glued to the band, that is, in the first minute of the game. He won for the first yellow card in the most absurd, and there he began to go the match against Valencia. And then, of course, appeared Perez Burrull.


With open left side of the gas being at home, and the children inside, looked at all possible sides and went to the fourth official, who told the obvious. Result: penalty and expulsion of Marchena. Forlántransformó punishment and from there began a new night where everything good and everything bad corresponded to Atletico, as the Valencia resigned from that moment. He hurried the group to finalize the night Quique fast track, but ran into old problems.

The threat of Silva

For example, the team turned to be very, very long, so it was very difficult to exploit this superiority. Emery's group came to rest with some credit, because the technician sent to put a bench Maduroy Mata, a logical shift, just as logically that no options left to own. Villa did not appear again and Joaquin, a player who was long ago discovered the lie, they were unable to endorse the only one able to propose something. David Silva is a tremendous footballer, capable of holding the ball, run when necessary, dribble, stop, send ... It was spectacular goal that ultimately did no good, the first party, just on the next play the first penalty not indicated on Reyes.

He faced Silva De Gea, which stopped first. He dropped the ball again and gave a wonderful recital of feints and deception to, with a subtle touch, put Valencia ahead. Because he survived the visitors. Thanks to him and Caesar, a spectacular goalkeeper at the Vicente Calderon.

The stopped all colors, starting with a lack Simao pulled him back from a short break. From there, three closely with Aguero, Forlan to another, balls for high, capable of slowing the game. He did everything and did everything right, although the weight of logic eventually fall. With Aguero and Forlan sniffing the prey, and again Reyes spectacular plan, the thing was a matter of time. The Seville was also immense for him and the team, which is something not always had. It seemed so, but they passed the minutes, came the last quarter of an hour and everything was the same.

And on top, Agüero begging for mercy to his ankle for his cramps, and unbearable. The band was preparing jury to give over and leave without the option of being the one who opened the road. He saw the corner of his eye he had been required to Simao and stayed in the small area with a confused face. Charlie was sure he had won the Argentine in the night, and did not see coming. In a defensive error unforgivable, the one who was there, and that he did not need even jump to finish, it was Kun Aguero, rising to order the shirt with the image of his son Benjamin who had saved for weeks to celebrate his 50th goal in the League, a round figure.
