Atletico played very well in this match, they really had a condition where they really dominated the whole 90 minutes of the game. This is what they should have done from the start by having a sporadic attack scheme and of course this match was more exciting than them only focusing on defense.
Position 4 is comfortable for them but Sociedad's 2 points now can still be passed if their performance continues like this.
ATM collected many points in the last games that made them able to pass Betis and be 2 points behind Sociedad.
I don't fully agree with position 4 is comfortable for ATM since 2 rounds failure will make them drop behind Betis. ATM should keep positive results to get the 3rd position and stay away from the 5th place so they can guarantee a place for the UCL
At This point every team is fighting for survival, there's a relegation battle between the bottom teams and there's a champions League too four battle between Real soceidad, Real Betis, Athletico Madrid and Athletic Bibao.
Real Madrid will be looking to pile the pressure on Barcelona and at this point every match is taken seriously because these are critical times with strong matches even a team fighting relegation will still be hard to defeat because they are fighting for survival in the league.
