Atlético is a team that knows how to surprise. Especially this season, which has just started. After the 0:7 victory over Rayo, they lost to Valencia with 0:3. The legendary lost victory in Rome was followed by a surprise derby victory over Real Madrid.
This time too, Atlético surprised us in its own way. It seemed like he started the home game against Cádiz with confidence; Griezmann hit the post in the third minute, but something went wrong. Pérez scored first after a cross from the wing, although Atlético signaled a foul at the beginning of the rival attack.

Then Fali Jiménez almost put the ball in the goal with a shot from his own half of the field. Oblak was already helpless in this situation, and he was saved by the fact that the ball did not fly half a meter to the right. However, Cádiz still scored for the second time. It turned out that Atlético’s goalkeeper was knocked down, but from the edge of the area. Martí distinguished himself after a failed header by Azpilicueta, who had to come out through the center of the defense.

Cádiz had two shots on goal in the first half, resulting in two goals. The guests, apparently, did not expect it and subsequently focused on defense. In general, it is symbolic when someone plays against Atlético by closing their own third of the field. At the same time, Cádiz had five defenders and all 11 were behind the ball line. I do not help.
Atlético came back with quite a bit of confidence. Already in the first half, Simeone’s team pulled one goal back. At first the home team did not know how to attack, but they maintained possession and scored at a second pace. Correa scored after a cross from Azpilicueta.

The second half started perfectly for Atlético. Not even a minute passed before they managed to even the score. And again, what was essentially a second-rate attack was successful. The first shot was blocked by the goalkeeper, then Molina finished and the ball entered the goal through the foot of rival Javier Hernández.

Cádiz practically did not reach the rival goal and Atlético’s third goal was in the making. There was no need to wait for the last minutes of the game, because already in the 66th minute the locals made an excellent combination. Saúl shot on touch and Correa scored a double.

Atlético did not repeat Cádiz’s mistakes and did not sit on the defensive. If we held the initiative, there were opportunities to increase the lead, but then the score remained unchanged: 3:2. The Madrid team rose to fourth place, surpassing Real Sociedad. By the way, Atlético will play with him in the next round.
