Oblak: Atlético searches for lost regularity

Jan Oblak, goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid, expressed his frustration after the last match, acknowledging the team’s difficulty in maintaining the necessary consistency in LaLiga. “We dropped two important points, a shame,” he lamented, underlining the irregularity that prevents them from competing for the title.

The goalkeeper emphasized that, although everyone wants to win, the lack of regularity is costing valuable points and allowing their rivals to get closer in the table. Despite the disappointment in LaLiga, Oblak looks optimistically at the next Copa match, seeing it as an opportunity to raise a title.

He acknowledged the difficulty of the clash against FC Barcelona, ​​recalling the recent league match where Atleti, after winning 2-0, ended up giving up the victory. “We must get together, do our best and try to get to the final, to fight, at least, for this title,” he said. Although he reached a personal milestone by becoming the third player with the most games in Atlético’s history, Oblak played down the achievement in a moment of adverse results: “Thanks, but when you don’t win, it doesn’t matter.” Regarding the penalty awarded to Espanyol, Oblak trusts the arbitration decision, pointing out that the clarity of the referee and the lack of VAR review suggest a clear foul. He concluded by recognizing Espanyol’s needs and lamenting the loss of points for his team.

Worry at the Metropolitano! Le Normand Forced to Leave the Field

Alarms went off in the match against Espanyol when Le Normand had to be substituted after an accidental collision on the field. A game incident, a clash of heads with Roberto, forced the central defender to retire prematurely, just 25 minutes into the match.

The medical services of Atlético de Madrid, acting with the utmost caution, decided that the player should leave the field to undergo the relevant tests. The decision was made taking into account the traumatic brain injury with subdural hematoma that the player suffered at the beginning of the season, keeping him away from the fields for 67 days.

Remember that his recovery was a gradual process that required gym, ball exercises and the use of a rugby helmet to protect him. Although fortunately it was not more serious, the incident generated concern among the Colchoneros fans, who hope that the talented central defender will recover soon and can return to defend the red and white. José María Giménez entered the field in his place. From here, much encouragement to Le Normand and a speedy recovery!
