Atlético de Madrid advances in the Youth League with Sergio Esteban and Rubén Gómez
Atlético de Madrid already knows their opponent in the round of 16 of the Youth League, which will be from the champions route. The team overcame the challenge against Slovan in a match that was an exercise in possession and constant attack.
Atlético attacked with bite and Slovan with little intention or bite. The first goal came at 20 minutes, scored by Omar after a cross from Dani Muñoz. The second half was more of the same, with Sergio Esteban up front and much more accuracy.
Esteban scored a hat-trick and showed he is a future goalscorer. Rubén Gómez’s European debut also stood out, one of the great future bets of the rojiblancos. The match ended in a rout and Atlético awaits European opposition.
