We begin with ‘LaLiga Overtime’ from matchday 19.
LaLiga Overtime 24/25 – Match Day #19:
Atlético de Madrid are winter champions:
A Julián Álvarez goal was enough for Atlético de Madrid to close the first round of the championship as leaders. Simeone‘s side came up against an uncomfortable Osasuna side who put up a good fight, but the ‘colchoneros’ came out all guns blazing from the first minute and created plenty of chances, although they went from strength to strength.
As for Osasuna, the Navarrese were growing during the match, but it was not enough. Vicente Moreno was forced to rotate due to the tight schedule, a situation that did not prevent his side from competing until the final whistle.
Athletic Club beat Real Madrid at San Mamés:
Real Madrid have been knocked off top spot by their defeat at San Mamés on 4 December. With a bad version of Mbappé and a team that was in a much worse playing dynamic than the current one, San Mamés proved to be one of the most decisive grounds in the championship and Athletic Club came up big against Real Madrid.
Valverde’s side imposed a very high tempo with Iñaki Williams unleashed and pressing high up the pitch with a lot of intensity, as they usually do at home. All this meant that Real Madrid missed out on becoming winter champions.
Real Valladolid can breathe in front of their home fans:
Diego Cocca’s side have picked up three points that bring them closer to salvation. The Pucela side have now won two games under the Argentinian and are returning to their best competitive level.
The fans are still not satisfied with the management, but the truth is that their team has already improved its image and is starting to pick up green shoots that can be somewhat encouraging.
