Witsel Praises Sorloth's Goleador Instinct
Axel Witsel, after returning to the starting lineup for Atlético de Madrid after four months, expressed optimism and happiness about his performance on the field. The player highlighted the importance of having approached the match with seriousness, considering the similar conditions they will face in the World Cup in the United States.
In his statements, Witsel emphasized his good physical condition, despite the time elapsed without playing as a starter, and anticipated the need for a rest before giving his all again.
But the main focus of his praise was on Alexander Sorloth, whom he called “a machine, a goalscorer.” Witsel emphasized the forward’s ability to materialize opportunities, describing him as a player who does not need multiple chances to score.
He also valued the generosity of his teammates, such as Julián, who preferred to give the goal to Sorloth in a play where he himself could have finished. Finally, Witsel commented on the team’s new kit, expressing his approval and anticipating that he will keep it as a souvenir. With a month ahead with the team, the player was determined to make the most of this time.
