The situation
There is one thing that Koke will never surpass Adelardo at . It is in the goals. 113 in his 553 games with Atleti. 113, the 8th on a list led by Luis (172) , in which Griezmann is 4th (144), Gárate, 5th (136) and Torres, 6th (129). Adelardo history of Atleti forever although today Koke exceeds what seemed impossible, his 553 games, 47 years ago he established it. But Koke today plays 554. And it had to be against Sevilla . There is no screenwriter like football: he is the rival against whom he has scored the most goals in his career (7). His record with Pizjuán as the stage, in a match between anguish Anguish on the Cholo bench: six games and eight points behind the leader (Madrid). Six days and the irregularity that prevailed part of last season again present. The break served to recover his two starting central defenders, Savic and Giménez, who had not yet been able to play together in this 22-23, the infirmary as the stage, first for one, then for the other, both at the same time. But Cholo has regained headlines these 15 days of selections and in Pizjuán he will have everyone except Reguilón (and Hermoso, sanctioned, and Lemar, who did not travel, and De Paul, who did not either).It is the match that will mark where Atleti wants to be. In the fight or for the bronze, being only third against a Barça and Madrid against whom he always competed. In the fight or for nothing, right now it is 7th. He has not won at Pizjuán since 2018; League, Montella as coach, Griezmann three goals.
Julen’s wire
The Frenchman after breathing ownership in the derby will return to the bench. His 30 ′, the cage of his clause and, even so, decisive, the best soccer player in Cholo. João, who four years later is still waiting for him (without anyone doubting his class, infinite). But the games happen and zero goals, but the games happen and Atleti does not start and that he is already a starter. Today, however, that site will be disputed with Morata in a turn of the Cholo system in which Witsel, it seems, will return to the middle. The season goes through this week. Today in Seville, on Tuesday in Bruges. What happens to Lopetegui is life and that is more than an anguish . Losing and even drawing would place him on the verge of dismissal, which he saved with the victory against Espanyol and the draw against Villarreal, both away from home.
