2-1: Julián Alvarez, the hero of Atlético de Madrid against Bayer Leverkusen
Atlético de Madrid achieved an epic 2-1 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League, thanks to two goals from Julián Alvarez. The match started badly for the mattress makers, with the expulsion of Barrios and the goal of Hincapié in the first half.
However, Alvarez leveled the game as soon as he left the locker room and in the final stretch he made the definitive 2-1 amid the general madness in the Metropolitano. Simeone’s team finished Tuesday’s round in the Top 8 of the Champions League.
