2025-03-29 Diario As

Espanyol showed grit and determination against Atlético in a match full of intensity and key moments. Despite the adversities, the Perico team managed to recover and take a valuable draw. Joan García, although he didn’t have as much action as in other matches, came across an inspired Azpilicueta who opened the scoring.

The defense, led by Cabrera, showed solidity and experience, recalling his past at the Colchonero club. Carlos Romero, incisive in attack, generated constant danger on the wing. Pol Lozano was fundamental in midfield, recovering crucial balls.

Urko contributed physicality and game vision, while Jofre Carreras sought to unbalance without success. Král, although with ups and downs, always tried to connect with his teammates. Puado, celebrated for his 200 matches, was the hero of the day by converting a penalty that meant the tie.

Before the goal he was somewhat disappeared, without entering, for too many minutes in the first half, in contact with the ball. But after the break he looked more active and successful. Roberto, always a fighter, provoked an unmarked penalty in a controversial action. The changes in the second half, with Veliz, Roca, Edu Expósito, Pere Milla, Calero and Aguado, brought freshness and solidity to the team. In short, a vibrant match that reflects the fighting spirit and ambition of Espanyol.
