Agonizing Emotion: Atleti B Draws in Extremis
Atlético de Madrid B rescued a valuable point in their visit to Antequera in a vibrant and alternative-filled match. The match, corresponding to the league day, left a bittersweet taste in the Rojiblanco subsidiary, who saw the victory vanish in stoppage time.
After a complicated start, with a penalty against converted by Samuele Longo, Atleti B knew how to react and turn the score around. Boñar, with a great goal before the break, equalized the match, while Niño, from the penalty spot, put Torres’ team ahead in the second half.
It seemed that the Colchonero subsidiary was heading towards an important victory that would allow them to climb positions in the table and reinforce their morale as a visitor. However, Antequera did not give up and, in the final stages of the match, intensified their pressure on the goal defended by Iturbe.
The local siege found its reward in the 94th minute, when Pol Roigé, taking advantage of a defensive disconnection, beat the Rojiblanco goalkeeper and established the definitive draw. A goal that left Atleti B players frozen, who saw a triumph that they had practically in their pocket slip away.
Despite the final draw, Atleti B showed character and reaction capacity against a complicated rival. A point that, although insufficient for both teams, serves to continue adding and looking up in the standings.
