I wanted to say that it was unexpected to see Atletico concede so many goals, but they played against Barcelona, and for these guys this season there is no defense that they could not break through. And it is worth praising Atletico's attack, by the way, they are also very good, Semione finally managed to make Atletico also strong in the attack line, and not just famous for their defense.

The way Atletico bag that 3 points, I said it in my mind that the goals was quick and Barcelona will do a come back which they didn't hesitate in the first half. I was expecting them to have more goals in the second half but it seems the two teams were ready for each other, they went toe to toe that many goals were rule out yesterday, it was giving old Real Madrid and Barcelona vibes but I still gives accolades to Atletico for not bowing to pressure from Barcelona in the second half.

However, there is something I don't know Copa Del ray, if it was normal Laliga game, Barcelona wouldn't have allow Atletico have those goals, even the coach didn't start Lewandowski in the beginning of the match, it was when it became tense and pressure he brought in Lewandowski and immediately I saw his effort in the game. I want to assume they didn't expected Atletico to come from the angle they had those initial goals and that's when they knew they are in serious business.
