The draw put the French to sleep and increased the confidence of the Spaniards, who scored 1-2 during a counterattack in which Griezmann made a mistake on the last pass. However, nothing happened and the truth is that there were no more shots on either goal for the rest of a first half that ended with a magnificent result for a very soft Atlético at the back It was clear that he needed to be more intense in defense in the second half if he wanted to leave Paris with a positive result.
The team does not improve from the start of the second act. Griezmann could not act as a hinge between the midfield and the attack, PSG once again controlled the match as they pleased, even if, as in the last half hour of the first half, without creating any real scoring opportunities. Dembélé and Achraf once again insisted on Galán’s side, but this time Extremadura had Gallagher’s supportwho was not as favorable in the first 45 minutes.
Barcola had the first opportunity authentic recovery. Oblak stopped him, but that was the signal Simeone needed to intervene.

Oblak prevented Achraf from scoring a goal in Paris’ best chance of the second half to the great despair of Luis Enrique, who ordered his players to attack, disregarding the draw and betting on victory. A movement that allowed Atlético to take advantage of space on the counterattack what he lacked until that moment, and in the last of them, a few seconds after the decisive intervention of his goalkeeper, Correa scored the winning goal to the uncontrollable joy of the entire red and white bench. Three golden points that no one counted on, but which are already in the bag.
