Pepe couldn’t finish the match and Kroos was replaced in the 75th minute. The journalists didn’t’ doubt in asking the French manager about these two players: “I wanted to introduce Isco to defend the left side and have more ball possessions.

Griezmann played a very good match today scoring the goal in the last 5 minutes that gave the draw to Atlético Madrid: ” We don’t have to wonder how to stop him.

  1. Comment: I want to say this as a Madridista, Athletico didn’t deserve a single point from that encounter because they didn’t play as expected, our defense line fumble, i will categorically relate it to Nacho, he is a gud defender no doubt but i used to observed most of the time that Nacho is finding it wrong when our defense line try to subject an opponent in an offside position, if we watch that incident very carefully it was only Nacho that remain with Griezman when all the defenders drawn the offside line and the French man did us the damage, so i call on Zizou to work on Nacho in that aspect especially when he is playing in the fullback position, he is a gud guy a utility player but that’s his problem, nevertheless, we thank God for the point and the loose from our arch rival. #HalaMadrid
