Atletico Madrid on a roll: six consecutive wins
Atletico Madrid has undergone a radical transformation in its performance, going from a disastrous defeat against Betis to a six-game winning streak in La Liga and Champions League.
The team has beaten Vic (0-2), Las Palmas (2-0), PSG (1-2), Mallorca (0-1), Alavés (2-1) and Sparta Praga (0-6), with a total of 15 goals scored and only 2 conceded. The key has been the emergence of secondary players such as Giuliano, Javi Galán and Lenglet, as well as the consolidation of Julián Alvarez as a star signing. The team is now third in La Liga, five points behind Barcelona, and in Champions League the balance is three wins and two defeats. The next opponent in the Champions League is Slovan Bratislava, who have lost all five games.
