Sorloth to lead the Red and White attack against Real Sociedad
Atlético de Madrid is already preparing for the crucial match against Real Sociedad, with Simeone outlining an innovative strategy to compensate for the absences in the attack. Pablo Barrios and Riquelme trained separately, while Julián Alvarez, suspended, enjoyed a well-deserved rest.
Given this significant absence, Cholo surprised with a tactical scheme that places Sorloth as the spearhead, supported by Giuliano and Lino in offensive playmaking.
In the rehearsals, Simeone lined up a possible starting eleven with Oblak in goal; a defense formed by Giuliano, Llorente, Le Normand, Lenglet, and Galán; a midfield with De Paul, Koke, and Gallagher; and in the attack, Lino and Sorloth.
Giménez also had minutes in training, replacing Lenglet in the backline. Despite his outstanding performance in training, Griezmann could start the game from the bench, although his quality and commitment are undeniable.
The team is confident and prepared to face the challenge against Real Sociedad at the Metropolitano, seeking to add three vital points in the fight for the season’s objectives. The Red and White fans are eagerly awaiting to see Sorloth lead the attack and a combative and ambitious Atlético de Madrid.
