What happened to Atletico Madrid! They lost in the first match of the season. And even then against a weak team like Espanyol. Despite being 1-0 ahead in the first half of the match, Atletico lost the match by a score of 2-1. Atletico started a very bad one.
Atletico Madrid are playing with new players, so they still not having a good chemistry.
De Paul and Dias Lino left, they were stronger than to Cardoso.
Atletico Madrid have given a chance to several new players in the starting XI. Almada, Baena, Johnny, Ruggeri and Hancko are new to Atletico Madrid. It is true that the players have not yet formed a strong bond. However, Espanyol was not a strong opponent. Espanyol's attack was also quite weak. And this team managed to score 2 goals against Atletico Madrid. If Atletico Madrid had lost to a renowned team, I probably would not have underestimated the team. Losing against a team like Espanyol is really a shame. Atletico Madrid could have tried to draw the match.
