After 120 minutes of football coach Diego Simeone paused. 120 minutes he had gesturing on the sidelines, provoked warnings required for opponents, his players driven in this tough quarter-finals match between Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen. You could rent Simeone’s place on the bench to a paying audience, so rarely ever bouncing coach had sat on it. But now stood before something Simeone could not quite affecting. It went to penalties
The final phase of the Champions League in the evening began, as they had lasted 120 minutes. Chewy, unappetizing. Atlético’s Raul Garcia lifted the ball over the bar. The shot of Leverkusen’s Hakan Calhanoglu rolled down slightly in the middle, Atlético goalkeeper Jan Oblak, slipped in for the injured Moya in the game, parried casual
Personnel change at Atletico. The audience
Griezmann and Rolfes made it better, then Ömer Toprak was my turn. He trotted provocatively casual the penalty spot, shot well over the bar, as once Uli Hoeness, 1976 in Belgrade, and because Stefan Kiessling it imitated him shortly afterwards, Bayer Leverkusen adopted after an exhilarating first leg but still out of the Champions League, 2: 3 ( 0: 1) on penalties
The mood in the Leverkusen tour group was still well before the game.. They had acquired a credit equal to one goal and no goal in the first leg. Her coach Roger Schmidt had dimmed the expectations anyway. It was not a favorite, insisted the coach, at best, an “outsider with good opportunities.”
Champions League Özil flowers too late – Arsenal is coming off
The surprise is from: Arsenal to win at AS Monaco 2: 0, missed because of the weaker first leg but the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Mesut Özil shines too late.
From Atlético was last indeed penetrated bad customer to Germany goalless draw against Espanyol had even committed fewer fouls than the opponent. Roger Schmidt knew, however, that unlike the first leg in Leverkusen, the Spaniards would on a personnel change: Set the audience. “It must not be silent for a moment,” Simeone had about 50,000 visitors einbestellten applied at the Estadio Vicente Calderón. In return, the coach had at least offered: “We will fight for our lives.”
His staff did not disappoint the audience. Simeone players swarmed the ball carrier Leverkusen four to five, like bees to honey. The fans sang and shouted as ordered, and if they dared to lower the volume in short, Simeone woke her up right away. More than two corners did not bring all but one first. Leverkusen, meanwhile, led its key competence.
You try so also to disrupt the opponent early, much to rob him in his own half of the ball, and then to take a matter of seconds before the opponent’s goal. The first case study, there were visible after ten minutes. Son stole the ball, Bell Arabi sprinted with him towards the goal, the ball went just past the post. Then once was not much, neither of Leverkusen still Atlético.
It was a standard situation with the Atlético are the only opponents rightly considered, then the gameplay tugged on his side. The Spaniards were a free-kick in Leverkusen’s goal, the ball jumped from head to head, Drmic reached out for strong kick, but his header was only a few yards, he soon came to Mario Suárez. He sent the ball immediately towards goalkeeper Bernd Leno. Leno had the shot parried probably, but then walked Ömer Toprak between. He steered the ball past Leno over, into his own goal (27)..
With Football is the final stage of the game only distantly related
Atlético had the score leveled, restored the operating safety. Now moved to their game. They were watching something deeper, were robust as ever, even without Tiago and Diego Godin, its breakwater on the defensive, and when completely unnerved Leverkusen eventually lost the ball, Atlético was immediately intervene on the opposite side. Especially after the break, Bayer was busy trying to save his own goal.
Schmidt sent the experienced Rolfes and Kiessling (for the hapless Drmic) into the field, Leverkusen struggled, was infected by the feverish mood , the meanness of the Spaniards. Atlético had a good chance from the free kick by Koke (70th), staggered a shot of Turan (80th), Bayer, escaped into overtime. Was lucky when Raul Garcia Rolfes elbow stretched face, unnoticed by the increasingly overburdened referee Nicola Rizzoli – what Atlético immediately punished with kicks
With football this performance was now used only remotely.. Leno punched a powerful shot by Raúl García off (106), Rolfes placed a long-range shot just wide (111). Shortly afterwards took Fortuna. With the better end for Atlético.
