Julian Alvarez’s goal in the 50th second of Atlético Madrid’s match against Real Sociedad
Being one of the innovators of the transfer market and despite not having a perfect start with Atlético Madrid, Julian Alvarez He begins to correct course in the red and white T-shirt and scores again. On this occasion, It was in the corresponding match of the ninth day of La Liga against Real Sociedad, when the kick-off occurred just 50 seconds earlier.
At dawn of the match at Anoeta Stadium, Colchonero struck from the dressing room at the Real Madrid team, which started the game with the ball at their feet. Having picked up the ball in the center of the field, the visitors seized the initiative from Antoine Griezmann.
The Frenchman had cleaned up play on the left and was already moving forward in search of places in his former team’s defence. Javi Galan noticed the number seven’s movement and played a pass over the back of the central defenders, which the striker completed with finesse and elegance. After superb, top-notch control of the box, he unleashed a backheeled shot that dislocated the entire defense and left Julián facing goal.
Alvarez placed the ball with his right foot and fired a cross and low shot with his left foot. Faced with a powerful shot from the Argentine, Alejandro Remiro threw himself to the ground but was unable to stop the ball from hitting the net to make it 1-0 after 50 seconds of play.
Cordoba’s first goal against Alethi was scored in a very similar manner, as his assist was the same. It happened a few weeks ago against Valencia when Griezmann sent a shot into the box which the Argentine pushed through in a 3-0 win for Diego Simeone’s side.
Despite the three goals scored by the world champion, his stay in Madrid did not start well and there were strong rumors about his presence at Atleti. Matias Palacios, an Argentine journalist working in Spain, recounted a curious situation he observed between La Araña and Cholo during a match against Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish league. “Julian was playing as a midfielder on the left, giving his hand to the number three for the return, and at a certain point he was going to come into the game. Giuliano Simeone author (Alexander) SorlothSo, Julián, I look at him from the front, I see Julian looking at Simeone (father) and starting to walk alone at 9, because Giuliano came in, Sorloth came out and said: “I’m going at 9.”told in dialogue with Radio La Red.
“Simeone, in desperation, signals him to stay on the left, and Giuliano enters.” Since then, Julian has never been the same: “He canceled it, didn’t play anymore, he got demoralized. This was true, it was never shown on television. Giuliano came and sent him to his 9-year-old son. In parentheses, the son is not bad, he is a good footballer,” the journalist continued about the position Cholo took.
This criticism was felt in the Spanish media as it intensified following Atlético Madrid’s inconsistent start. Despite the unconvincing performance filmed on the field. In the UEFA Champions League they just suffered a very heavy defeat in Portugal against Benfica (4-0).
