well I must say ideal playing conditions for football here at the Wanda metropolitano stadium in Madrid I'm Derek Ray on the commentary Gantry and sharing duties with me today Stuart Robson and the focus is on one of the finest leagues in World football La Liga it's Atletico Madrid against espanol yes thanks as always Derek we've got two good teams here so I'm anticipating a really good game the atmosphere is electric inside the stadium before kickoff and hopefully we're not [Applause] disappointed and here are the starters for Atletico Yan oblak stands between the posts stepan Savage starts with Jose Maria gimenez in the center of Defense Rodrigo Javier depal starts alongside K big moment here Derek and a goal it is no long wait for the opener today well here you can see it again good run great strength and a composed finish Under Pressure that's a top class [Applause] [Applause] goal the game has been restarted Atletico are in front G [Applause] deserves credit for winning the ball back you can't really tackle like that and expect to get away with it booking to come you would think well the referee stamping his authority on the situation he's decided to book him Stewart well you can't get away with that even this early in the game that's a bad challenge Gman moving it forward could cross it in here well he wasn't messing around with the [Applause] clearance joal Felix and it's come off the keeper I couldn't quite find his [Applause] teammate great opportunity save but still another a chance well good defending clattered out of there and the flag is up offside well that's just a lack of awareness he was clearly in an offside position and now they have the ball [Applause] back kaidi bar yanel errera well a pissy that it looked promising but that's going to be claimed by The Keeper oh he's given the ball [Applause] away now a decent position must be oh he's missed but by a minuscule margin well he couldn't have made better contact than that his technique is brilliant he's so unlucky there [Applause] Jo [Applause] Felix Koke with it griman a meaty but fair Challenge and it will be a throw in kah Rodrigo Javier dep power now kareah and a useful cross and they deal with the threat this [Applause] time can he finish well decent save [Applause] there over it comes well it still could be dangerous threat over for now it seems [Applause] he read it well but still work to do kareah racing forward trying to catch them out they need to get bodies back oh could be and a goal to increase their advantage to two overall that little bit of a cushion now it's all about keeping the concentration well here it is again and it's all about the pace on the Counterattack they were so quick to break out from their defensive positions while the move in the box is equal to it it's such good timing what a [Applause] goal well a second goal for them here [Music] showing considerable gu Crossing possibilities and it crossed the by line a goal kick as a result well so much to like about what Onan gas man has done in this game so far Stuart yeah he's certainly carved out plenty of chances he's tested the keeper on numerous occasions and he got his reward with that goal brilliant stuff from him so the whistle then we're at the halfway stage in this match you certainly have got to give this man high marks for his work up to this point Stuart well I really liked his first half display he was certainly the most influential player on the field and I'm expecting more of the same in the second 45 [Music] minutes the ball rolling again with Atletico having already made a big first half statement [Applause] gasman [Applause] kah aware of a threat solving the problem useful looking position you've got to say just made sure nothing came of that kaidi bar [Applause] and there's the feed into the box oh wonderful save well he reacts so quickly there that's a great [Applause] [Applause] save now sending it in well no wonder he's smiling didn't quite come off for him though [Applause] well there you have it Athletico have controlled most of the possession they've passed it well their movement's been good and they've been well worth their lead could get even better here terrific block dangerous looking through ball and they know they need to stop him well we really have to call that a squandered opportunity Stuart well what a waste that is it's far too easy for the keeper he should have made him work harder there kok Rodrigo Javier the power jaah Felix now griesman and sloppy in possession from Atletico [Applause] K careless with the pass moving into the advanced position and with that the attack Fizzles out and a bad pass it was [Applause] could put one back here and he does his thrown as team a Lifeline the belief is [Applause] back well here's the replay and he shows great awareness to play this through ball and then the Finish is fairly simple in the end that's a good goal [Applause] so on with the match 2-1 is the score line what's going to happen next [Applause] almost at fulltime not quite yet though an Atletico with a narrow Advantage Stewart what have you made of their performance today well for much of this match they've controlled the tempo of the game and deserve their lead but this is going to be a frantic finale they just need to defend their box really well here playing with purpose and control well fantastic reflex action from the goalkeeper well a corner it is and they know they've got to be opportunistic at this stage of the [Applause] game delivering it and fine goalkeeping and they'll get ready for the throw in and teammates to play it to well the crossing needs to be a bit better than [Applause] that we might very well have late excitement here 5 minutes to go and just one goal between them well still pressing for a goal here well the only way to say it is he got it all horribly wrong Stuart well he has to make the keeper work harder than that that's a teame [Applause] finish a sloppy [Applause] pass getting forward could have been awkward for the goalkeeper time is not on the side this corner could help the prospects as they look for an equalizer who's going to get on the end of it just far too close to the [Applause] goalkeeper and that is that the final whistle is sounded and music to the ears of fans of the cult Eros worldwide I wonder what your thoughts were as regards their performance well Derek it was a really tight game but they were the better side over the 90 minutes and they fully deserved their Victory today really no complaints whatsoever about his performance in this game Stuart well he was a
