Atletico are letting Real free on the wings. That's the opposite of what you're supposed to do against Real.
Notice how CR and Benz are playing centrally because of this, Marcelo and Carvajal are basically wingbacks.

Ronaldo has Eder to thank for that Euro.:sas2:

Conveniently ignoring all the goals Ronaldo scored up to the semifinal :skip:

Messi hasn't scored in the last 3 finals Argentina been to. Last world cup he stat-padded in the group stage against weak teams and didn't score a single goal after. That's your so called GOAT:mjlol:

It's the consequence of having a toothless offense, when they have possession they can't do nothing.
Atletico have no elite dribblers of note. They certainly are not going to penetrate via passing as they have no elite passers either.
Haven't got to watch them too much this year, glad i didn't

I feel bad for Atheleti, Real is playing A1 and I'm glad they didn't fall to sleep because arguably Munich is a better team than Atheleti so they could have taken them lightly.

Monaco vs Atheleti and Juve vs Real would have been a way better match up
