LIVE – Real Madrid-Atlético: the two teams neck and neck, Griezmann scores

21:24

Vinicius collapses in the area, but nothing is whistled (2-2, 60th)

He’s looking for this penalty! This is not the first time that Vini has fallen in the area and this time he collapsed on his own, logically the penalty was not whistled.

21:22

A rather calm start to the second act (2-2, 58th)

It was only Lino’s strike that livened up this second half for the moment. The two teams look at each other and seem to take fewer risks.

21:17

Samuel Lino hits wide (2-2, 53rd)

He almost hit the target! Shifted to the right side, Lino was able to shoot hard, but the ball passed a few centimeters from the post.

21:13

The meringues insist (2-2, 49e)

They have had their foot on the ball since the whistle. The players in white press, dribble, strike but each time are pushed back by the Atletico defenders, solid for the moment.

21:09

Here we go again ! (2-2, 45th)

The second period begins and we hope it will be as lively as the first.

20:55

It’s halftime! (2-2, MT)

We had fun during this first period, but it’s the break at KSU Stadium.

20:53

Koke est au sol (2-2, 48e)

Rudiger wiped his studs on the Atleti captain.

20:48

Magnificent save from Oblak (2-2, 42nd)

He had to make one. The talent of the rojiblanco goalkeeper once again stands out to us, what a parade. When Rudiger found Rodrygo on a long ball, we thought it was over. The Brazilian turns around, feints and knocks the opposing defense to the ground, but Oblak did Oblak. Yet having fallen into the attacker’s trap, he turns around quickly enough to get back into the trajectory of the ball and pushes it away with an unacademic save but which shows all the class of the goalkeeper.

20:45

It’s a historic goal for Griezmann! (2-2, 39th)

With this goal Griezmann certainly equalizes, but he makes history. This is the Frenchman’s 174th goal in the colors of Atleti, synonymous with a new club record! The native of Mâcon thus goes beyond the Luis Aragones legend and writes his own.

20:41

GRIEZMANN SCORES AND BREAKING ARAGONES’ RECORD! (2-2, 37th)

It’s a crazy match! Griezmann joins the party and in what way! He received the ball from De Paul and then he did everything on his own. At the end of a solo rush and after having deposited Modric with a superb technical gesture, Antoine Griezmann unleashes a shot with his right foot and equalizes! 2-2 What a match!

20:39

Vinicius misses the target (2-1, 34th)

Rodrygo had set fire to the Colchoneros defense and found Vini entering the area, but the number 7 shot wide.

20:36

Griezmann shows up (2-1, 32nd)

We don’t have time to rest. The Frenchman was alone in the area and took the opportunity to send a header straight into the gloves of Kepa who was not very worried.

20:33

MENDY GIVES THE ADVANTAGE TO REAL! (2-1, 29th)

It’s a party for the defenders. Mendy stayed at the forefront and he did well! It was the other full-back, Carvajal, who found him in the area and Mendy deflected the ball with his outside foot, exactly as was necessary to deceive Oblak, Real went back in front!

20:31

Rodrygo forces Oblak to intervene (1-1, 27th)

The Brazilian wreaked havoc on the left side before hitting Oblak at the near post forcing him to make a good knee save.

20:30

Valverde did not go far from the goal (1-1, 25th)

It’s worked on in training and you can feel it, Rodrygo, Modric and Valverde put together a combination on a free kick and it was the Uruguayan who shot, the ball passed just above the goal. ‘Oblak.

20:27

The match is heating up! (1-1, 22nd)

This is a great opposition that we are witnessing this evening. The two Madrid camps go blow for blow and chain the duels with great intensity. The score should not stay tied for long.

20:24

Real equalizes! (1-1, 20th)

A corner everywhere! Rudiger responds to Hermoso in the same way. Bellingham had won a corner by shooting through the legs of his defender, then Modric took care of it and Rudiger jumped higher than everyone else. Everything has to be done again, 1-1!

20:24

Morata on the attack (0-1, 18th)

The counter-attack was carried out seriously by the red and whites and Morata was found in the area but it missed!

20:22

Oblak intervenes quietly (0-1, 17th)

After a two-played corner, Rodrygo sends a ball into the “pile” then Oblak calmly takes it.

20:20

Ateltico beats Atletico (0-1, 16th)

After opening the score, Simeone’s men retreated and left the ball to their neighbor.

20:17

Rodrygo falls in turn, but still no penalty (0-1, 13th)

He also collapsed in the opposing area but still no penalty in favor of Real Madrid, although it would have deserved at least a video check.

20:15

Vinicius fell in the area, but it plays (0-1, 10th)

Modric had found Vini in the last 16 meters but he collapsed against Savic, the referee did not whistle a penalty.

20:11

ATHLETIC OUVRE THE SCORE! (0-1, 7e)

Kepa’s save followed a corner, and the rojiblancos only need one shot to be spicy! Hermoso is perfectly served at the far post and places his crossed header in Kepa’s goal, 1-0 for Atleti!

20:10

Belle parade de Kepa! (0-0, 6e)

Kepa deployed for the first time and what a parade!

20:09

Rodrygo s’infiltre (0-0, 4e)

Real have got their foot on the ball and Rodrygo tries to create danger on the right side but the Atleti defenders are in place.

20:06

Atlético launches the offensives (0-0, 2nd)

It was they who had the ball first, and Griezmann tried to alert Lino in the area, but he was too short.

20:04

The kick is given ! (0-0, 1st)

After the beautiful minute of silence in tribute to Franz Beckenbauer, the match can begin, let’s go!

20:01

The 22 actors return to the pitch

The teams are in place on the Al-Nassr field in this KSU Stadium, for a match which promises to be grandiose.

19:59

Atleti goes from good to bad

5th in the standings, the Colchoneros do not seem to be in the place they should be. Since the start of the season, the Rojiblancos have shown very good things, led by Griezmann in very good form, they have achieved great performances in the Champions League or even against Real at the start of the season. But for all that, the results are mixed. So this Super Cup could be a way to get back on track before tackling the European deadlines. Since the implementation of the new formula, they have never won the Super Cup, so why not this year.

19:54

The infirmary is full, but Real are doing very well

Alaba, Courtois, Lucas Vasquez, Militao, here is the list of injured players on the Real side. Little by little the infirmary which was frequented by Vinicius, Arda Guler, Modric, Tchouaméni, Kepa, Camavinga is emptying. And despite these shortcomings, Casa Blanca has managed to stay alive in all competitions and with flying colors. 1st in the championship, qualified for the Champions League and the Copa del Rey, it’s as if there had been no crisis. This evening, they are almost complete and should play at 100% to seek, why not, a first trophy of the season.

19:45

A Spanish poster… in Saudi Arabia

It is on neutral ground that the match will be played, since 2020 and the new formula imposed by the Spanish league, the competition comprises 4 teams with two halves on the program and a final scheduled for Sunday 14 (instead of two and a round-trip final before 2020). So the chosen ground is as usual in Saudi Arabia, and this year it is that of Al-Nassr (Cristiano Ronaldo’s club) which was chosen, the Al -Awwal Stadium, also called KSU Stadium. Whether it will bring luck to the Portuguese’s former teammates, we will see this evening.

19:43

Real – Atlético, an omnipresent duel this season

This is the second Madrid derby among the four we will be entitled to this season. The first clash had smiled on Simeone’s men, on September 24 Atleti won 3-1 on their lawn against the Merengues in difficulty and without Vinicius, a double from Morata and a goal from Griezmann had given the victory to the Rojiblancos. After learning that the two teams will meet again in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey next Thursday (January 18), Madrid are still divided this evening for a place in the Super Cup final against the winner of the FC Barcelona – Osasuna match tomorrow evening (Thursday 11).
