The match was very tough where there were a total of 8 yellow cards that had to be issued by the referee to each player from both teams. Of course Alaves will not allow Atletico to break into their goal and this result makes Alaves move away from the relegation zone and Atletico can only sit in a big position and will not be able to catch Girona.
Atletico Madrid is indeed quite strong team, but they still often make mistakes which make the results of matches make no sense.
Defeat against Alaves was embarrassing for Diego Simeone and with this defeat they had to be willing to lose full points to still have significant big point difference from Bilbao.
For Ancelotti himself, he has shown the world that he is indeed great coach and is still able to bring Real Madrid to the peak of its glory in winning titles in several competitions.
They will only focus on the UCL for now and Ancelotti really looks so calm after ensuring that Real Madrid enters the semifinals, everything will go easily and those in the semifinals are still below Real Madrid performance level.
