Thought we were really good tonight.
Atletico were always going to be tough to break down, the crucial thing was that we kept control of the overall play and didn't allow ourselves to get countered on. I can't think of anything Atletico actually did going forward, apart from that really short spell at the start of the second half when Griezmann had a run and Gundogan managed to get back. Apart from that I thought we were just calm, patient, and got the win we deserved.
Playing against these, it's always gonna descend into a game of sitting and waiting to see who cracks first. We held our nerve, made the right changes, and were incisive when it mattered. A second goal would have been a nice cushion but any win against these gives us something to protect. They're going to pull out all the shithousing stops back at theirs so it's better to face that kind of environment and gameplan with something to hold on to.
This was back in the group stages. We need to brace ourselves for something 10x worse next week.
