Atleti secured a spot in the Champions League last 16 thanks to Wednesday’s 2-0 win at Salzburg. Hermoso and Carrasco netted the goals. The hosts had a massive early chance as Berisha cut inside and his shot hit the woodwork. We tried to hit back several times, particularly down the right wing, but Salzburg were dominant in the early stages of the clash. Our first player to try his luck was Llorente, who struck wide from the edge of the box. as the first half progressed, Atleti managed to regain possession and stop the Austrians’ attacks. We became more and more dangerous and Hermoso found the breakthrough in the final minutes of the first half. Carrasco delivered the cross and the Spaniard headed it home to score a very valuable goal. Joao Félix had a shot on goal in the opening seconds of the second half, but it was the hosts who had the really big chance as Szoboszlai was off target from close range. Simeone moved things around just after the hour mark, bringing Herrera and Correa on for Saúl and Suárez. Despite the odd Salzburg chance, we dominated possession in many phases of the second 45’. Joao Félix was close to doubling our lead with 10’ to go, but the keeper made a fine save to keep his side in the game. Carrasco eventually did so as he finished in style a cross from the right flank. The match ultimately ended 2-0 and Atleti are through to the last 16. --
