Sorloth, the golden plan of Atlético de Madrid
Norwegian striker Alexander Sorloth has become a key player for Atlético de Madrid in the Liga, with seven goals, the same number as Griezmann and two more than Julián. His presence on the field conditions games and sometimes also the results.
In the match against Getafe, Sorloth entered in the second half and scored the decisive goal with a header and a flick of the heel past Soria. This goal makes him the best substitute in the big European leagues, with four goals coming off the bench in 286 minutes.
Coach Simeone had a talk with the forward a few weeks ago to transmit confidence and demand, whether he starts or comes off the bench. Sorloth has a different profile than the rest of his teammates and has once again proven to be a useful resource on the field and a plan in itself.
