Kick-off second half

Half-time conclusion:
Break! The score is 1: 1 between Villarreal and Atlético. After a dismal start, Correa hit out of the blue with his hit from the center circle. He ushered in a wild phase. First Moreno missed a penalty, Parejo’s follow-up led to the supposed equalizer, but was withdrawn because of a handball. Only a little later, Torres netted to make it 1-1 after Oblak’s mistake. The yellow submarine in particular then had a few good actions, but has to be content with a draw at the break. The red-whites, on the other hand, have to show more in the second round. See you soon!

Official injury time (minutes): 2

21:44
Cunha conquers the leather deep in the opposing half and takes Carrasco with him on the right. Its flank is blocked, however.
40
21:41
There are still five minutes to complete before half-time. Are we allowed to marvel at a gate on one of the two sides beforehand?
37
21:38
Now, for once, the guests manage to keep the ball a little further away from their own housing. But that doesn’t necessarily look safe all the time.
34
21:36
In the meantime this batch has become wild birds. Since Correa’s towering goal it has been going up and down, now the Rojiblancos are again under constant heavy pressure. It seems like a matter of time before they fall behind.
31
21:32
The next big opportunity for the Emery Elf! Estupiñán puts a phenomenal long stroke back Parejo’s left in the box to the edge of the box. Trigueros slams the thing over it.

21:28
Goal for Villarreal CF, 1-1 through Pau Torres
And then it’s 1: 1 again! Parejo kicks a free kick in front of the box from the left. Oblak only bounces so that Torres can dust off from five meters.
27
21:28
Bitter number for Villarreal. No sooner have the home side released the scream from their lips than the goal is stolen from them with a very tough decision that complies with the rules.
24
21:26
VAR decision: The goal by Dani Parejo (Villarreal CF) is not given, score: 0: 1
… in the pursuit, Parejo jumps towards the ball, Felipe also falls on the ball that bounces off high. Parejo unintentionally maneuvers the thing into the mesh with his arm on. After a two-minute consultation with the VAR, the validity of the hit is revoked.

21:23
Penalty missed by Gerard, Villarreal CF.
Moreno runs up, but fails with his weak attempt half right below but on the descending oblak …
23
21:23
Penalty for Villarreal!

21:21
That would have been Correa’s next fancy booth. As a result of a brief corner kick, Cunha beheads the marble before the fiver. Correa turns on itself and completes artistically with the hoe. But he was also on the sidelines.
19th
21:19
Cunha has that 2-0 on the foot! The ex-Hertha races towards Rulli from the right half-field after a somewhat lucky plug-in pass. In one-on-one, however, the goalkeeper remains the winner.
16
21:17
And suddenly the thick compensation option! After a cross from the right, Moreno nods the ball at the short post to the right post. The rebound lands in the box on the left at Estupiñán, whose shot hisses past from nine meters on the left.
13th
21:14
Nobody here really saw this projectile coming. So far the Colchoneros hadn’t taken any action at all. Correa’s stroke of genius tears the hosts from the clouds.

Goal for Atlético Madrid, 0-1 by Ángel Correa
Correa scores a fable goal – completely out of nowhere! Parejo plays a bad pass into the feet of the Madrilenian at the kick-off point. He doesn’t hesitate and fires from the center circle at the opposing box. Rulli hurries back, but quickly realizes that he no longer has a chance against it. What a thing!

21:09
If a team is active in the first ten minutes, it is the yellow submarine. Atlético, on the other hand, is completely withdrawn from the offensive.
7th
21:07
Gerard refueled through to the right into the sixteen-yard room, but got no real action on the chain.
4th
21:05
Calm start. Both teams struggle in midfield in duels. There is nothing constructive about it.
20:46
The Colchoneros, on the other hand, have only one thing. They currently occupy fifth position in the ranking – among other things because they suffered three bankruptcies in a row towards the end of last year. Both city rivals Real Madrid (0: 2) and FC Sevilla (1: 2) and FC Granada (1: 2) suffered defeats. 0). Since the Copa del Rey performance was also successful during the week (5-0 at third division Rayo Majadahonda), the self-confidence should be sufficiently high.
20:27
It was a nice series that ended on Thursday with the yellow-blue team on Thursday. In the Copa del Rey, they lost to second division Sporting Gijón (1: 2) after six competitive wins in a row. The focus can now be placed on the league until the Champions League round of 16 against Juventus Turin in February. There they are on average well with 28 points in eighth place. After all, they are only five points behind until third place.

Hello and welcome to the 20th matchday in the Primera División! Villarreal CF host Atlético Madrid today. Kick-off at Ceramica is at 9:00 p.m.
