To Larín before the break. A header marking the times from the Mallorca striker found the saving hand of Oblak. Once again. As in Paris, as in so many stadiums in the season in which the Slovenian once again rubs shoulders with the best. He never really stopped doing it, because even one step below his current moment he was still a reference in the dugout and on the green. Mallorca is his latest victim (he also covered Abdon wonderfully in the final minutes) for a player who is being the most decisive of the red and whites this season. As if that were not enough… he even started the 0-1 play again. As in 1-2 in Paris.

Another assist from Giuliano
One goal and two assists. That is Giuliano Simeone’s balance in Atlético’s last games. He has taken ownership on his own merits on a right wing in which he participated in the red and whites’ first goal against Mallorca. A long ball from Oblak was fought to the end by the youngest of Cholo’s sons, who should also take out the kinship to speak well. He beat Mojica and Maffeo by faith… and put the ball to Julián to score the goal that put Atlético ahead. What a vein 22 is.

Riquelme… the man who tries everything
He is an offensive player but he has played more as a winger than in attack. We are talking about a Riquelme who, against Mallorca, did occupy a position more in line with his career prior to being in Atlético’s first team… and who tried in every possible way to hurt the locals. After a first half in which Simeone’s team did not shoot on goal, Roro was in charge of leading the red and white team in the entrance after the break with several shots from someone who tries everything. It’s not a small thing to see others in the green…

Jagoba does it again
Again. As with Osasuna, Mallorca is now the team that is growing with the help of Jagoba Arrasate who, without being in the media, is one of the technicians who brings out the most and best performance from his teams. The Basque, direct and clear in front of the microphones, has continued Aguirre’s work… and in some aspects he is improving it. A technician who does not take center stage but who works as hard as anyone to create teams that fight for higher objectives than it seemed at first. That’s why this Mallorca is going to flirt with Europe.

Julián, a chance… a goal!
Atlético did not shoot on goal in the first half. Only one ball reached the Mallorca area. Julián fought against everything and everyone without getting the best out of his repertoire while playing 60 meters from the rival area. Another story was in the second act. There he started active and just when Sorloth was ready to replace the Argentine, Giuliano’s play came… and the Spider’s goal. That he needs very little to peck his rival. This is his fourth goal in the current LaLiga played in 13 games. In total, he has seven… and he is the top scorer.
