This is the classification of the Atlético group in the Champions League after the defeat against Liverpool

The Athletic has gotten into trouble after losing at Anfield to him Liverpool (2-0). They continue to depend on themselves to be in the round of 16 of the Champions League, but after Porto’s draw at San Siro they remain third in the group b standings with four points, to one of the Portuguese who are second. They have run out of room for error.

If Atlético win both games that remain against Milan, in the Wanda Metropolitano, and Porto, in Do Dragao, on the last day, will be in the next phase. Luckily for the rojiblancos the Portuguese have not won at San Siro and are only ahead of them by one point, so by winning the remaining two games they would be classified.

It was not the day of Athletes. They started losing 2-0 and with Felipe sent off before the break. Meanwhile the Liverpool pressed for the third. Cholo Simeone’s pupils made backward waters, each arrival was synonymous with danger and the rojiblanco’s attack did not fuel. Suárez, Correa and Joao Félix were not quite comfortable.

The Liverpool was much higher than Athletic at all times. Suárez scored a goal but the referee canceled it for Giménez’s previous offside. Minutes before they had annulled the third to the reds due to an advanced position by Diogo Jota. Simeone, before the gale he was suffering, closed ranks to prevent the result from being more bulky.
