So far, Almería are beating Espanyol and their position in the standings is shrinking... If Espanyol continue to play with almost no attacks, they definitely won't score any points in this game... Honestly, I thought they were the favourites for this match, but I think Almeria are playing better... The interesting thing is that Espanyol had good game stats, better than Almeria...
Real is definitely a great team. They are a perfect team for tournaments, I do not know what makes them so great at tournaments better than everyone else, but I am pretty sure that it's something special and definitely something that takes a bit of their time to specialize in that.
They managed to get the win very late in the game but they did, and they do this all the time, they work the defense up all game and try to either find a spot they can get in, or they even learn and adapt during the game itself, and after they tire the defense out, they just do what they do best. They have done this against the best teams of the world, and keep doing it again.

I believe Sevilla will improve their morale even more by defeating Elche as well. This is a comfortable match for Sevilla despite their very inconsistent form. They at least started to get wins finally and this should definitely be some help for them. Sevilla are getting better at attacking day by day. We are seeing positive things lately as they find many more goal opportunities. This should go on like this if they really want to stay in the La Liga. In time hopefully they will be able to score more goals than now as well.
Maybe the match against Elche will be a match in which they score multiple goals.
Sevilla should keep their previous victory to be a big capital when facing Elche. Sevilla has finally come out of the relegation zone which makes all the players maybe even more enthusiastic about continuing to make a big contribution in the match against Elche.Maybe the match against Elche will be a match in which they score multiple goals.
on paper, maybe Sevilla will be able to beat Elche easily because Elche is a team that has not been able to find its best form. rakitic was able to be the hero when Sevilla beat cadiz and hope he can do this against elche.
The goal scored by Rodrygo in the 79th minute made the score 1-1 which forced Atletico to continue the match into extra time. Atletico were really unlucky in this game, after failing to maintain their advantage, they had to play with 10 players after Stefan Savic received a red card in the 99th minute.
As a result of losing the number of players, Atletico had to concede two goals in extra time through Benzema and Vinicius which made the score turn 3-1 up for Real Madrid victory.
The defeat to Real Madrid in the Copa Del Rey meant that Atletico had to end this season without a trophy because they had previously been knocked out of the Champions League and had difficulty catching a point deficit from Barcelona. This defeat also extended Atletico record defeat to Real Madrid, Atletico must be consistent in La Liga to secure a place in the top four positions to go to the Champions League next season.
Real Madrid are the favorites in that match, but Real Madrid's dip in form so far has left them trailing Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid managed to force Real Madrid to play up to 120 minutes, but fatigue and one player short made them unable to hold on until the penalty shootout. Real Madrid managed to take advantage of 1 man to score goal, but the red card was completely unexpected.As a result of losing the number of players, Atletico had to concede two goals in extra time through Benzema and Vinicius which made the score turn 3-1 up for Real Madrid victory.

Next, I don't expect El Clasico in the semifinals, but I expect Real Madrid and Barcelona to be in the final again. That is the best wish for me, regardless of who wins the title.
It's good tonsee they finally won the game against Athletico Madrid but that doesn't hide the fact that they're a very derailing side this season for the past five or six fixtures. Before the World Cup and after the Cup. Real Madrid has shown a drop in how they possess the ball in midfied.
One thing is sure, if same way they did perform last night was repeated, they're missing out on the La Liga Competition and award.
If they still get to another finals, Barcelona will show how much they have improved and win the game, I want to win two trophies I might sound a bit biased but still not a Barcelona fan. I just want to see them clear to financial issues arising.

Even no red card, I believe Real Madrid can win against Atletico Madrid.The big change in Atletico Madrid performance happened when Morata and Griezmann left the field, they no longer can give a strong attack as previously. I'm not sure what the reason to send them to the bench too early, but it gives a big influence on Atletico performance. In the second half, I see Simeone use more defensive players, it makes Real Madrid easier to get more opportunities to score. And even if they reached a penalty shootout, I assume Real Madrid to win it as well.
Next, I don't expect El Clasico in the semifinals, but I expect Real Madrid and Barcelona to be in the final again. That is the best wish for me, regardless of who wins the title.
Agree. Ideally, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona should be in the final round. It is very unfortunate if they meet in the semi-final round.

Almeria vs espanyol is a high stake games in my opinion both teams has been performing well recently but they are not safe from relegation, only few points separate them from it so the team who manage to win today will benefit greatly i think almeria are a slight favourite since they are playing home and seeing how well they are controlling the game so far i think they can win but only if they manage to score quickly otherwise it will become difficult by each passing minute.
I don’t think that this is some kind of special tactic - it’s just that Real Madrid has the will to win and they play to the end. It seems to me that none of the teams wants to postpone the denouement of the match until the last minute. Real Madrid often succeed in the final minutes because many teams can't handle the pressure of Real Madrid for the entire match. We can say that there is an analogy with boxing and "champion rounds".
Madrid is an extraordinary team, in the several matches that have occurred, they have always won when the match was almost over. Atletico Madrid led 1-0 at half-time but at the end, everything changed, Benzema, Vini, and Rodrygo were brilliant players.That's his biggest mistake that was giving madrid chance to comeback
Atlético's defense is strong and I admit that but look at Rodrygo's way past some of the Atlético defenders it's absolutely beautiful for a young man. On the other hand, they are increasingly losing concentration and there are lots of unnecessary violations that make Madrid have an advantage in this match.
Now there are only 4 names for the Copa del Rey semi-final. I hope the Barcelona Madrid final will happen again.

The closest match in Laliga is the match Almeria vs Espanyol. Historically, we know that Almeria has never won in the last few meetings against Espanyol. And this season it seems that Almeria is not showing consistent performance. Having experienced 9 defeats this season, it is unlikely that Almeria will be favored in this match. However, as the host, Almeria will certainly play to the fullest. and of course Almeria still has a chance to win in this fight.
It is difficult to make predictions for the bottom team, because it is often surprising when playing with a team of the same quality, Espanyol is currently one point ahead of Almeria who is ranked 14th in the standings, Espanyol has a capital of two wins and one defeat. Meanwhile, Almeria got two draws and one defeat in its last three matches. Based on the results of the previous three matches Espanyol's chances are very big according to my predictions.The other two matches will bring Cadiz vs Mallorca and Girona vs Barcelona in La Liga, the match will be more interesting between Girona vs Barcelona, I will choose Mallorca and Barcelona who come out victorious, moreover Xavi needs points to get further away from Real Madrid.
likewise with this match because they want to take advantage of a match with 3 points.
5 minutes into time Espanyol were in control wanting to take the game early on.
Atletico Madrid will need to focus on the La Liga only from now on. It is a very poor season for them as they are out of the Champions League and Copa del Rey both already. In the La Liga also things aren't going well for them obviously. They aren't even close to the front row for a title race. Atletico Madrid have lost a lot of their strength. There is no such team that can fight with Barcelona and Real Madrid at a similar level. This is a sign for Simeone to leave the team after a long time of working here also.
Yeah I really think he should leave the team before being sacked by the team. It is the best for both sides. In this way Atletico Madrid can find a better fitting coach to reach the level they deserve with this squad.

Nobody should resign I think because even now Atletico is back in the top four. Even though it is still very vulnerable to being overtaken by the teams below it, but with Diego Simeone still able to provide good results for Atletico, Atletico are still doing well.
Unless Atletico are bottom of La Liga as Sevilla have previously, then Diego Simeone will probably resign or be sacked.
But so far in my opinion Atletico are still doing well, so let Diego Simeone coach Atletico until the end of his contract and it will be better for Diego Simeone and for Atletico too.
He has been at Atletico for a long time but after they won La Liga his performance has dropped a lot in the last 2 seasons even though they are still in the top 4 in the end it's still a little complicated when they always do the usual things by always playing defensively as the most common strategy for them.
I think there needs to be an update in terms of the coaching staff, regardless of anything a strategy like this isn't really used at the moment.

Yes, Atletico Madrid should now be back in shape and performing better than before but we cannot forget that 18 weeks passed so far and it's more than half season which is a lot and Atletico Madrid got only 31 points from all these 18 games which are not bad but if you compare the situation of Atletico Madrid which other similar teams on the top of the table you can understand that Barcelona got 44 points and the played one game less than Atletico Madrid which can make it hard for Diego Simeone to take them this season.

Karim Benzema scored against Athletic at San Mamés and moved level with Raúl as Real Madrid’s second-top goal scorer in LaLiga. The Frenchman, who scored the opening goal with a wonderful left-footed volley, has now netted 228 goals in the competition to equal Raúl’s tally between 1994 and 2010. Only Cristiano Ronaldo (312) is ahead of the Frenchman now.

Benzema caught Raul's record after scoring a goal against Bilbao last week. He is the second most goalscorer in Real Madrid history, along with Raul. He set a tremendous record. He remained in Ronaldo's shadow for years. But now he has made himself accepted by everyone in Real Madrid. He will score one more goal only and become the second top scorer in the history of Real Madrid. I'm sure he can definitely do that.

He will score one more goal only and become the second top scorer in the history of Real Madrid. I'm sure he can definitely do that.
If he can maintain his current condition for another 1 or 2 seasons, I believe he will probably reach the goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo. Because seeing his current condition he can still be relied on in Real Madrid's games, unless Real Madrid doesn't want to continue his collaboration.
Even though Karim Benzema is still quite confident about his various achievements, age has become a challenge for him to stay at Real Madrid with the various leading competitions that Real Madrid has undertaken. Even though he brought changes after Ronaldo's departure, at his current age he is vulnerable to running out of stamina.
Real Madrid will start preparing to look for new talent
Age can indeed be a barrier but until now Ancelloti still believes in Benzema like him. at least until the start of next season because until now there has been no sign of Madrid bringing in a striker so far, especially with some rumors now that they are only looking for a midfielder.
Morata put Atletico ahead, in the old days I would say that Real could be in trouble if Atletico had the same good defense as they used to. But now we can wait a bit and bet Real +1, or Real will score. It will be necessary to look at which event will have better odds. Atletico took the lead a little unexpectedly, but Real Madrid has been missing a lot lately, I think that Real Madrid won’t give up so easily, all the struggle is still ahead.
In the end Real Madrid managed to qualify for the semi-finals despite some protests by Atletico Madrid players during the match. I saw both teams trying to win the match, but of course this match was in favor of Real Madrid because at the crucial moment Atletico Madrid had to lose player because of red card. I don't think it was bad foul worthy of red card, but the referee seems to know more about how to make decision even if it could change the game.After the match, Diego Simeone criticized the referee for his leadership during the match. Diego Simeone considered that Real Madrid should have received red card when Morata was fouled, but Real Madrid escaped. I don't know who to justify, but derby match are often hot.
The match is entering a crucial time now and this can be a decider because sometimes Madrid always go all out when they are in the last 10 minutes even though it will be a little difficult because Atletico with their defensive scheme are still quite disciplined so far.
Many chances were wasted for Madrid and I tried to see what Ancelotti did from the start of the match which I think was a little wrong when playing a player who couldn't be in his position.
Even though in this case Modric and Kroos played, but when placing Modric on the side that was actually not his post, this slightly hampered the flow of the ball.

Even though in this case Modric and Kroos played, but when placing Modric on the side that was actually not his post, this slightly hampered the flow of the ball.
They are really in a strong dominance in the middle of Atletico's defense which is always a little troublesome but they are able to overcome it.
The substitutions of several players were quite effective and Rodrygo became the opener for Atletico's disaster. Now they are playing with 10 players and they have to be left behind by 1 goal. This is clearly difficult, especially with the condition that they always carry out defensive schemes and counterattack.
Well, the truth seems to me that here Real Madrid showed what they are made of, because now with everything they went through in this match, Rodrygio, Benzeema and Vini Jr. stood out for me, they are key players at Real Madrid, really These players make the difference and I see that hjoy had another vision, I can't deny that Morata's goal was excellent, I don't know how Cholo will handle things but they have to do something urgent to solve these things and these types of problems, the Atlético has a very good team, but I think they have to sweat the shirt more, perhaps the cholo's strategy is not giving him adequate results.
As for when it comes to Morata's goals I prefer the collaboration of Correa and Koke for their sweet crosses but Rodrygo's solo run goal is no less beautiful for Madrid. It was a brilliant goal past 4 defenders from Atletico.
Vini and Benzema became other actors in this match. Benzema's shot from a very tight angle and another solo run from Vini left Atletico devastated.

Snip.
The victory in extremis was a relief for Real Madrid, who are in the spotlight after doubts have arisen about its management and performance. Too bad for Atlético: they tried to do their best during the match and were exhausted at the end. I guess that they didn't expect such a comeback in the last moment, but this is not the first time we've seen something like this, so we can debate whether it was the best strategy for them or not.The last sentence is interesting (not directly related to the match we are talking about, but still). It must be hard for such a big team to find the balance between quarry for the future and top performance in the present. I agree that they Real Madrid has some merit in doing so, although their finances are better than Barça's, for example, and this fact helps for sure.
The closest match in Laliga is the match Almeria vs Espanyol. Historically, we know that Almeria has never won in the last few meetings against Espanyol. And this season it seems that Almeria is not showing consistent performance. Having experienced 9 defeats this season, it is unlikely that Almeria will be favored in this match. However, as the host, Almeria will certainly play to the fullest. and of course Almeria still has a chance to win in this fight.
I think in the match between Almeria and Espanyol it is difficult to predict the team that will win the game because the performance of both team has not been impressive and the two teams are separated by one points in the League standing as they occupy 13th and 14th place in the table. For Almeria which is the home team, I think they will find it difficult to win at home going with their history with Espanyol but they may likely return to winning streak at their home ground tonight but that will be if they perform better than the away team which appear to be the stronger opponent than them but a draw won't be bad for the hist because the odd of 2.44 against 3:15 is not going to be an easy win.
