2025-03-03 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for an exciting match, with Clément Turpin appointed as the referee. This experienced French referee, known for his authority and commitment to flowing play, will officiate in a crucial game.

Turpin doesn’t hesitate to show cards if he deems it necessary, which adds an element of discipline to the match. For Real Madrid, Turpin is a familiar figure in European competitions, with a mostly favorable record: seven wins and one draw.

However, for Atlético, the memory is bittersweet. The Colchoneros have obtained two wins, three draws, and one loss under his refereeing. A remembered match is the draw against Leverkusen in 2022 and the match against Arsenal in the 2017-18 Europa League, where Vrsaljko was sent off.

Julián Álvarez: The Goal-Scoring Talisman at Atlético

2025-03-03 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid celebrates the arrival of Julián Álvarez, a striker who has proven to be much more than just a goalscorer; he is a true ‘opener’ capable of unlocking crucial matches. The Argentinian, with astonishing effectiveness, has scored five goals in his last five matches, including one at the Metropolitano.

His 21 goals not only add to the score but many of them have served to break the initial tie, confirming his role as a decisive star. In La Liga, he has opened the scoring on seven occasions, while in the Champions League and Copa del Rey he has also left his goal-scoring mark.

Álvarez stands out for his precision and ability to exceed expectations. His expected goals (xG) are significantly lower than what he has actually achieved, demonstrating his goal-scoring instinct. Especially brilliant in the Champions League, where he has far exceeded predictions.

Furthermore, his shooting effectiveness is remarkable, converting nearly half of his shots on target into goals. After being rested in La Liga, where he still managed to score and secure the victory, Julián Álvarez is expected to return to the starting eleven.

His ability to score even coming off the bench, with seven goals in this situation, makes him a valuable weapon for the team. The Rojiblanca fans are confident that Álvarez’s best moment, and therefore Atlético’s, is yet to come. A player who not only scores goals but also generates hope and optimism among the fans.
