This Saturday evening, Real Madrid welcomed Atlético de Madrid for the 23rd day of Liga. After a first half hour of play where the Merengue club largely dominated the debates in terms of possession, the game was arrested for a potential fault of Tchouaméni on Lino, in the penalty area. Taking time to make his choice, the referee finally believed that the tricolor international had walked on the foot of his opponent and designated the penalty spot. Alvarez transformed the sentence of a panenka, allowing Colchoneros to open the scoring (0-1, 35th) and to return to the locker room with advance on the display board.
Mbappé, power 16
Atlético de Madrid was therefore a virtual leader of the Spanish championship. But not for long. At the start of the second period, Kylian Mbappé equalized. The former Paris Saint-Germain player inherited a balloon from Bellingham countered by Gimenez, and found the right foot fault, without control (1-1, 50th). This is the sixteenth production in La Liga this season for the captain of the French team.
In the process, Bellingham found the transverse bar of Oblak. The goalkeeper Slovenian also allowed his team to preserve the point of the draw several times.
Thanks to this zero result (1-1), the men of Carlo Ancelotti retain their first place in the league, with one point ahead of those of Diego Simeone. Sunday evening, at 9 p.m., FC Barcelona will travel to the lawn of the Sevilla FC and will have the opportunity to return to two units from the “White House”.
