After watching Real Madrid's great performance against Barcelona, no one expected Real Madrid to lose against Atletico Madrid. Also against Barcelona we saw very good performances from Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. And I think these two Madrid youngsters will play well against Atlético Madrid. But we haven't seen a good performance from these two Madrid players against Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid performed well from the start of the match. They were able to keep their defense strong, while at the same time Atlético Madrid players attacking a lot of. However, Atletico Madrid will play against Sevilla in the quarter-finals. Atlético Madrid has a high chance of winning this match as well. The final of the Copa Del Rey is likely to see Atletico Madrid and Barcelona.

No doubt after winning Super Cup, lost in Copa del Rey is not big deal because players having too much load and things are also not favourable with too many injuries are also happening around so now with this lost they can stay in good touch for the La Liga and Champions League titles which are still into their control, and they have good chance for the staying into win for this double again.

Carlos Ancelotti is doing impressive work as his team is having good depth, and they are playing aggressive game against their opponents which is helping them for keeping at the top level, but now it's also good time for having few replacements because injuries can bring problems in coming days while pressure will be also high on players for the title in La Liga and Champions League with mostly near the end of the season we have conditions never been easy.

The performance of Real Madrid players was really bad in the Copa Del Rey, and this season Atletico Madrid managed to thwart Real Madrid's plans to defend the title. This is clearly a shame because after all Real Madrid has better squad depth than Atletico Madrid, but that's football where the favorite team doesn't always win every match.

Atletico Madrid, Girona, Barcelona, ​​Mallorca, Sevilla, Athletic Bilbao, Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad managed to qualify for the quarter-finals this season. These 8 teams will fight to qualify for the semi-finals which will likely be held in the last week of January. Barcelona against Bilbao, it was a difficult match for them.

We have to admit that Atletico Madrid's attack performed well in this match. They played very well. Although the opponent Real Madrid was very strong, Atletico Madrid players were confident. Atlético Madrid's defense and attack were both very strong. If the defense could not play well, then Atletico Madrid could not resist the powerful attacks of Real Madrid.

Morata, Griezmann and Depay have all played very well. Grizemann and Morata scored a goal each and Depay had an assist. Also, Samuel Lino scored the first goal of the match for Atletico Madrid. On the other hand, we saw poor performances from Vini and Rodrygo today. Even though these two players performed brilliantly against Barcelona, their performance in today's match was poor as usual.

The match between Deportivo Alaves and Cadiz I don't think that Cadiz will win this match but I know quite well that Deportivo Alaves have being playing different kind of matches and I know what you guys  are saying the matches, because from what I'm observing in this match I deem it fit to know that either Deportivo Alave the match or it will be draw matches because Cadiz can't defeat Deportivo Alaves no matters  how they  play the match of defensive I think maybe it will end  them draw if the match is too tough to Deportivo Alaves, only that alone will make Deportivo Alaves to make the match to be draw, this is just assumptions because the match is not started yet, I bring it to board let everyone deliberate between the two matches

Madrid actually did the best they could do but it was Athletico night from the beginning and they deserved to win. During the week, Real madrid played the super cup on extra time against same Athletico, follow by the final with Barcelona and then the kings cup, extra time upon extra time. Madrid players looked stressed and fatigued. This greatly affected the players performance and it's very obvious especially during the extra time. Madrid lost the match but they deserve some praise for their outstanding performance all this while because playing against top teams within a short interval flying from one city to another is not an easy task.

Nevertheless, Madrid need to get a well established central defender and also a forwarder because this issue of rotating every game is slowly killing the team. I expected to see the same XI used against Barcelona and probably some change in the second half but everything entirely was different. I also consider benching Kroos as a mistake in a game with high intensity like that.

Isn't it surprising that the derby match between Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid, in La Liga it is clear that Real Madrid has significant advantage but in the Copa del Rey it has proven that Atletico Madrid has the advantage with the home game they have.
Real Madrid had very good control of the game but Atletico Madrid were able to take advantage of opportunities very well and they created 4 goals and held off every Real Madrid attack until they could only score 2 goals.
In this match there were many violations and the referee issued quite lot of yellow cards, but it was quite interesting because this match was truly amazing and both teams competed quite fiercely to be able to beat each other.

Atletico Madrid's target to avenge Real Madrid has been realized. Atletico Madrid was defeated in the Super Cup Semifinals with a very tense game until extra time was added because the normal time for the two of them was a draw.
A week after Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid, it was Atletico Madrid's turn to beat Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey with the same process in a different competition.
Because in normal time the two of them played a draw, to determine the winner, additional time had to be continued.

Real Madrid are already one trophy away from winning this season after being knocked out dramatically by Atletico Madrid. This match was really full of emotions. There is no longer any hope of seeing an El Clasico duel in the Copa del Rey this season.

It was a really tough game to watch,Madrid are still to me one of the best teams in the world no doubt,they have been incredible this season and are currently second in the Lalliga table, sitting behind Girona who have been flying high this season.On the other hand, Athletico Madrid have done better this season than last season ,they have been so good in scoring as well,and if you look at the other game they played with Madrid,they also got some goals.Now anytime Madrid and Athletico are playing,it will be fair to give a prediction of over 3.5 goals in the game,the odd might be quite high.I will be waiting to watch their returning leg in the Lalliga.

What two games just have giftedto us this two teams, im refering to Atletico MAdrid and Real Madrid, just incredible in a short span of time two games with more than 10 goals combined and high level of emotions, i cant just imagine how the fans feel in both matches. One per side ended up.

Simeone has been learning a lot from the previous match. I meant atletico was not changing its strategy and club keeps play with 5 people on the mid. It was awasome to see atletico madrid was performing better in the game against real madrid.
It shows that real madrid can still be beaten as long as its opponent can perform consistently against it. Im feeling so amaze with atletico madrid's performance.

This was a complete revenge from atletico madrid which makes the club qualiifed to the quarted final very soon. The upcoming game will not be as hard as this time and im sure real madrid will make it soon. I hope that atletico madrid will able to win copa del rey.
It can become the first trophy to be acquired by the club. Im feeling a bit better by seeing atletico madrid was scoring. I meant madrid was bottling it at this match caused by it was not performing th same like previous match.

Atletico madrid will always become the main rival of real madrid and otherwise. Glad to see that the match between real madrid vs atletico madrid are always interesting to watch. It's better than elclassico.

This is the second time this season he has won against Real Madrid, if I'm not mistaken,in all of La Liga Competition, they're the only club they've finally lost tooo.
You know what? Atletico Madrid deserves them flowers at the same ground they have shown, they still have it. Games like this are interesting. Saw Jude Bellingham assisting the Joselu head increasing his goals and goals involvement this particular season. I wonder what happened between Diego Simeone and Vinicius Junior though, it wasn't much of a very big heat between them.

I know this game would definitely have a negative impact on how they play during the weekend at her honestly.

Nowadays, watching Atlético vs. Madrid is more interesting than Barca vs. Madrid. Real Madrid typically doesn't perform well in the Copa del Rey, so I'm not surprised, to be honest. Tough luck for Real Madrid continues. With their elimination from the Copa del Rey, they can no longer aim for trebles this season. Now, let's shift their focus to the league title and the UEFA Champions League. But from my perspective achieving success in the UCL might be challenging due to the ongoing injury problems.

For this match, Real Madrid can indeed provide reasons, especially physical factors. But more than that, this must be a valuable lesson for next season if you want to fight for all the titles until the end of the season. Real Madrid must be smart in rotating players, plus the players must also be evenly distributed between core and reserve players. In this match, it was clear that Ancelotti was pushing his players too hard so it was natural that they would lose.

This defeat meant that Real Madrid always conceded three goals or more when facing Atletico Madrid this season. In LaLiga, Atleti Madrid 3-1 Real Madrid, Supercopa Real Madrid 5-3 Atletico and now in the Copa del Rey Atleti Madrid 4-2 Real Madrid. And Real Madrid's two defeats at the same stadium. This indicates that Real Madrid is still lacking in terms of defense because several Real Madrid defenders are injured.

In LaLiga, Atleti Madrid have appeared inconsistent in several matches, but I am sure they can definitely improve their performance so they can return to the top four, they are currently only three points behind Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao. With the performance shown when they beat Real Madrid, Atleti Madrid's chances of being in the top four until the end of the season are still very wide open.

I also think that Girona is still quite dangerous compared to other teams and because now the round of matches has not yet been determined, it would obviously be very interesting if Girona met Barcelona earlier. Because one of them will definitely meet Atletico Madrid in the final because I also think that Atletico Madrid is capable of advancing to the Copa Del Rey final this season and even has the potential to become champions in the Copa Del Rey this season.
​

I do think the same. Barca is not having a great season but also they don't have great players as well and they should stop transfer players who are over 32 years old because Barca mentality as a club , was always to import and raise young talents so I really don't get it why they like to have "old" players in the squad right now.

Regarding placement ...I do think they will achieve top 4 as well but I won't be surprised if they miss UCL spots.

The Copa del Rey win over Madrid was a well-planned vengeance plot for Atlético after their Spanish Super Cup loss. Their resilience versus Madrid at the Metropolitano twice this season is remarkable. I didnt expect it, especially with Madrid in good form under Ancelotti.

As much as I respect Atlético's resilience, I question their La Liga consistency. They must show they can maintain this performance. Madrid, however, appears to be prioritizing the league. They're going for the top slot and face easier opponents. Atlético's next games are important for regaining the top four. Not sure how this will play out, but the top four dynamics will be fascinating in the following weeks.

yesterday's game that barcelona played, it was a game that although barcelona managed to score 3 goals and won the game, still in my opinion it was a game in which barcelona did very badly, that's because they were playing against an opponent from lower divisions and even so it was visible the difficulties that the Barcelona players were having on the field, reaching the opponent's point every time they got the ball, creating a lot of problems for the Barcelona player who was being booed on the field, it was visible how the coach Barcelona player was worried about that game. a team at Barcelona's level playing at maximum capacity against a team from the lower divisions and yet Barcelona suffered to win the game

honestly it was a game that shocked me, I had already been shocked by the game a few days ago that Barcelona played against an opponent from a lower division and Barcelona had difficulty winning, I thought that in yesterday's game things would be different, but Once again, Barcelona had a lot of difficulty beating a weak team in the lower divisions. With that I simply start to think that Barcelona's current level could be that of a second division team. I know people may disagree and say that Barcelona just had bad luck in the last few games. But this season I don't see Barcelona being the same team as last season. Barcelona's defense is very bad

another game that I was looking forward to the most was the Atletico Madrid game against Real Madrid. I know that Atlético Madrid has become a very strong team when they play at home and in the last few games, even though they were European competition games, Atlético Madrid didn't lose, so I already expected that their game against Real Madrid wouldn't be an easy game. , but I didn't expect Real Madrid to continue to show great fragility in the defense that they have been showing in recent games. Yesterday I even bet on Real Madrid to qualify, but on the field Atletico Madrid showed great superiority in attack and that was undeniable. I lost my bet and I must say that Atletico Madrid were a fair winner

It's sometimes beneficial to give the team's younger players, such as Ardar Guler, an opportunity to showcase their abilities. At the end of the game, some real Madrid players were worn out and Ancelotti did not replace them. At times, it seemed as though Ancelotti was coaching the real Madrid team without thinking. I know this sounds harsh, but if we look at the beginning of the game, the players Ancelotti should have started with are not the ones he started with. The game was supposed to begin with Tchoumeni, Modric, not Kroos and Camavinga, Camavinga. He should have substituted Camavinga and Kroos in the second half, as Ancelotti did when Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Supercup. As soon as I see who will start the game, I already know that Atletico Madrid will win because some players aren't supposed to start.

Real Madrid gives it their all in every game, even if they lose and have to play extra time. This will also set an example for real Madrid and the coaches to allow those younger players to play so that the players won't be as worn out. Real Madrid also suffers from not having a player who can score goals; they have many of opportunities to score, but they are unable to take advantage of them. In contrast, Atletico Madrid has players who can score when they have the chance, and that is what wins them the game.

When it comes to mastering the playing pattern of an impressive team and finding the best way to stop them, Diego Simeone is simply one of the best managers in modern day football that can perfectly do that and I can't just help but clap in admiration for his tactical experience and approaches to important games like that of their last night game in the Spanish Copa Dey Rey round of 16 game against Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid players played in that game like their life depended on it and were rewarded with a win deep in the the extra time of the game.

For the second time this season, Atletico Madrid have faced Real Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitan stadium and Diego Simeone's men have been victorious in those two occasions.
