Athletico Madrid's unbeaten streak of 25 games at home in La Liga has come to an end. The last time they lost a home game in all competitions was back in January 2023, against Barcelona. Once again, Barcelona has managed to defeat them. It's unclear why Athletico seems to struggle against Barcelona specifically. Is it because of the different league and approach? Don't know but being humiliated and brutalized by Barcelona was tough.
So that's the question for all of us, we see Atletico Madrid always having difficulty scoring goals even though they have 13 shots, obviously this is beyond our expectations because Atletico Madrid is playing at home they should be able to provide more accurate attacks but unfortunately not. Sometimes there are some things that cannot be explained in a match usually we call it a lucky factor well maybe in this fight Barcloan is more fortunate and they also have more ability.
Next we will wait for how Atletico Madrid's efforts to regain their place in the Champions League zone certainly very unfortunate if they only play in the European League next season even though this season they were able to reach the quarter final. Atletico Madrid still has the opportunity to collect 3 points or more in the remaining 9 matches but that will be a little disturbing their concentration in the Champions League.
Atletico Madrid have tried hard to try to give their best as proven several times they tried to kick against Barcelona's goal. In fact, Barcelona's goalkeeper was too good so it was difficult to penetrate the defense. Until finally in this match the Atletico Madird players couldn't control their emotions and often received fouls until finally in the final minute Nahuel Molina received a red card.
