I was really shocked after the result. Atletico Madrid managed to beat Barcelona away in the La Liga after 18 years...  Shocked  It isn't a win at Camp Nou though but anyways.

I think the turning point of the game was Raphinha's lob shot hitting the upper post. If he scored there, Barcelona were going to make it 2-0. I think Atletico Madrid wouldn't manage to come back from that.

After that Simeone did his magic somehow again. A last minute winner brought the 2-1 win to his team.  Smiley  I don't remember exactly but it must be like their 13th or 14th goal that came in the stoppage time this season. They are really in this title competition.
Yes, I think many people were surprised by the results of this match. Because I personally don't believe that Barcelona can be beaten so dramatically by Atletico Madrid. Because if you look at the progress of this match, Barcelona really controlled the match very well. Starting from possession of the ball and also from the opportunities created. So I personally am also a little surprised why Barcelona lost this match. Maybe according to my assumption, the Barcelona players panicked a little when the match was about to end, so that the Barcelona defenders couldn't focus when guarding their defensive area. That's why the Atletico Madrid players managed to score a goal in a very crucial minute.

So with this victory Laliga is now topped by Atletico Madrid with a score of 41 points. I think this is a breath of fresh air for Atletico Madrid, after several seasons they have always failed to be at the top of the standings, but this season Atletico Madrid has a very big chance of getting another trophy. Apart from that, Barcelona's opportunities are still big at this time. But if Barcelona wants to become champions, the condition is that they must be able to wipe out all matches with a win. Because if they can't wipe out all the matches with a win, I think it will be very difficult for Barcelona to become champions. Because this season, not only Real Madrid is an obstacle for Barcelona, ​​but currently Atletico Madrid is also a very big obstacle for Barcelona to become champions in La Liga. So in essence, Hansi Flick has to make improvements to his current squad at Barcelona. Because I see that there are a few small problems in several Barcelona lines, which have quite a bad impact on Barcelona's performance.
