Atlético Femenino: Going for the League after the Cup High
Atlético de Madrid Femenino returns to Liga F with high morale after overcoming a demanding match in the Copa de la Reina, where the Rojiblancas’ grit prevailed in extra time. Ajibade and Sheila Guijarro were the heroines, sealing their passage to the semifinals and keeping the Cup dream alive.
Now, the Colchoneras await their opponent in Tuesday’s draw, with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Granada as possible contenders. But the League doesn’t wait, and this Sunday it’s time to visit Deportivo de La Coruña.
A rival on the rise, who has added important points in recent games, but the Rojiblancas arrive with the confidence of four undefeated weeks, accumulating victories against Levante and Sevilla, although with the bitter taste of draws against Levante Badalona and Granada.
Despite the irregularity shown during the season, the team remains firm in third position, securing, for the moment, a place in the preliminary round of the Champions League.
With 33 points in the locker, the Atlético de Madrid Femenino players seek to consolidate their place in the table, although the second position already seems unattainable. One of the aspects to improve is the goalscoring effectiveness, with the hope that Ajibade, Sheila and Gio will recover their goalscoring instinct and contribute to adding important victories. Guijarro’s great goal from midfield in the Cup is a plus of motivation. Come on, Atleti!
