Atlético: From Winter Champion to Disappointment
Atlético de Madrid, winter champion with 44 points and an impressive streak, has experienced a notable collapse in the second half of the season. Despite a promising start with 13 wins, 5 draws, and only one defeat, 2025 has brought painful eliminations in the Champions League and Copa del Rey, and a significant drop in LaLiga.
The team, which dominated the table, now sees the title as practically unattainable, contrasting with the strength of FC Barcelona. The second half has been a constant challenge. Of the initial 44 points, they have only added 19.
The victories have been drastically reduced, and the defensive solidity that characterized the team in the first half of the season has vanished. Atlético has conceded goals in most of the games in this second half, highlighting a worrying defensive fragility.
Although mathematics still offer a possibility, the reality is that the team’s performance does not invite optimism. The difference between the winter champion and the current team is palpable.
However, as Rojiblancos, we remain confident that the team will recover its best version and finish the season with pride. Atlético’s history shows that, despite the obstacles, the fight and dedication are non-negotiable. Aúpa Atleti!
