Saturday’s game really turned on that red card. Atlético were doing fine up to that point, even took the lead, and looked like they had a solid plan. But once they went down to 10 men, it completely fell apart.
Second half wasn’t even a contest. BarcelonaBarcelona just kept the ball, moved it around, and Atlético couldn’t get out at all. No shots, barely any possession — it was basically damage control for 45 minutes.
That’s what makes this next game interesting. If Atlético keep 11 players on the pitch, it should be a lot closer. They’re usually very hard to break down and can hurt teams on the counter. But if things go wrong again early, it could end up looking just like Saturday.
