– Angel Korea, Atletico Madrid, is awaiting the Derby match tonight against the Real in the Champions League, in light of his awareness of the size of the great competition and the importance of qualifying for the next round, according to the AS newspaper report.
But the confrontation will be of a special nature for him, after receiving a harsh penalty from the Competitions Committee to suspend five games, following the events of the Getafe match.
The Argentine seeks to compensate for what happened by providing a strong performance against the Carlo Ancelotti battalion, taking advantage of its distinguished level in the Champions League, where he scored three goals so far, two in the Sparta Brag net and one against Paris Saint -Germain, a goal that gave his team a valuable victory.
In all, Korea scored seven goals this season, three of which are in the League and a goal in the King’s Cup, in addition to providing five decisive passes.
Korea, which is the sixth most participating player in the history of Atletico Madrid with 459 games, will start confrontation with the bench, while Griezmann and Julian Alvarez lead the attack.
But it will be ready to enter the stadium when needed, as it has become a role closer to the right wing in the last matches under Simeone’s leadership, while Surloth is considered the primary offensive alternative.
With the balance of 87 goals in the Roqueblancos shirt, Korea is looking forward to continuing to shine in the Champions League, and contribute to leading his team towards victory in one of the most important matches this season.
