Atlético Madridare one step close to tastingLa Ligaglory once again. Diego Simeone’s boys have endured a wonderful campaign so far, and they want to finish it by claiming the long-awaited silverware. They are in a good spot, but Real Madrid are right behind them waiting for a miracle in the season finale.
The Colchoneros have held onto the first seed for a long time, but some unexpected upsets have given a dramatic final to the Spanish league’s last weeks. With Barcelona no longer in contention, the league decider will take part exclusively with the two big sides from the capital city.
In Matchday 37, Atletico came from behind to earn a hard-fought win over Osasuna with two late goals from Renan Lodi and Luis Suárez. Now they’ll travel to Valladolid aiming to secure the title, while the Merengues will be hosting Villarreal simultaneously, after last round’s win against Athletic Bilbao. Will the Colchoneros finish the job or are Los Blancos upsetting their rival’s party?
