Atletico's ability to adjust itself this season is the best in La Liga, thanks to the increasingly complete tactical system of Atletico Madrid, but also thanks to Atletico captain Gabi's ability to control the midfield.

It is true that Gabi is not a midfield master like Xavi and Alonso, but Gabi's position in the Atletico squad is not inferior to Xavi and Alonso.

This can be seen from this game, Koke is undoubtedly an excellent midfielder, but compared to Gabi, Koke is obviously too much inferior in comparison.

It's not a matter of personal ability, if you really want to turn personal ability, Cork is no worse than Gabi, and even Coke is better than Gabi.

The main reason for this is that Koke has been playing more on the wing before, and the main point is that Gabi has been playing in this position for several seasons, and everyone at Atletico is familiar and accustomed to Gabi in that position, when and where he will appear.

Fortunately, Atletico Madrid's game is against Malaga, so Gabi's absence is nothing, if it is in the next round, then Atletico Madrid is really dangerous, this point through these ten minutes of play, Simeone has found that the future of Atletico Madrid wants to go further, must solve this point, after all, Gabi is no longer young.

On the pitch, Atletico Madrid did not have any advantage on the field, but in terms of defense, Atletico Madrid did not have any loopholes, so the field was a little dull.

It was only in the seventeenth minute that Atletico had their second shot of the game, this time with a long-range shot from Costa, the ball was again held up by the goalkeeper, and Atletico won a corner.

Koke sent the ball into the box, Godin fought for the first spot, in front of the box, the header flicked the goal, the Malaga goalkeeper did not touch the ball this time, but the ball did not fly into the goal, grazing the crossbar and flying off the bottom line.

After five minutes, the two sides engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand fight in the midfield, and both teams also paid the price of a red card, Atletico Madrid's side was the captain of the field, Thiago, the captain of the flying shovel received Atletico's second yellow card of the game, and Malaga was also a midfielder, the young man Dadel, who had just turned 20.

However, Dadel's foul was not just a yellow card, it also gave Atletico a set-piece, and Koke looked very smart this time, he did not send the ball into the Malaga penalty area, but to the wing.

Juanfran and Atletico Madrid's right-back made one of the most brilliant breakthroughs since the opening kick-off, and the ball played Antunes into the box.

But as soon as he entered the penalty area, Juanfran regretted it, because there were too many people in the Malaga penalty area, and in this case, the passing was undoubtedly unrealistic, so Juanfran chose to come by himself.

A strong shot, although Juan Franbi played as a full-back at Atletico Madrid, he had also played as a full-back or even a winger before, and the shooting level was still good.

But today's goalkeeper in Malaga was even better, leaping and catching Juanfrán's powerful shot with both hands.

"Oh oh~~~ Atletico Madrid's strong attacking power has aroused the competitiveness of all goalkeepers in La Liga, you know, in this season, there is no goalkeeper who can keep a clean sheet in the face of Atletico Madrid" Martinez's words are still very reasonable, the previous seventeen opponents, Atletico Madrid all completed the goal, even the only draw also scored a goal.

Malaga have invested too much in defence and have never been able to really develop too dangerous shots, so Atletico can only adjust and try to threaten with long-range shots and set-pieces.

In the 27th minute, Atletico Madrid got a direct free kick opportunity, just on the left side of the penalty area, about 30 meters from the goal.

This time it was Turan who took the penalty and with a big kick, the ball drew a pretty good arc and flew to the right side of the goal, however, it was always a little bit short of the goal, and the ball flew off the bottom line against the post.

Two minutes later, Málaga finally unleashed a wave of attacks, and it was the only shot on goal in the last fifteen minutes, which came from Eliseu after bursting into the box.

Gámez's burst in from behind attracted Atletico's attention, Eliseu slashed in and Juanmi retreated to create an opportunity for Eliseu to burst into the box, but Courtois was solid, and in terms of goalkeeper ability, Courtois can definitely finish in the top three of La Liga at the moment, and don't forget, he was the best goalkeeper in La Liga last season.

From the ensuing corner, Málaga opted for a tactical corner, this time when it was the turn of another wing-back, Samuel, but the latter's long-range shot was too far off target.

In the 38th minute, Atletico Madrid had their best chance, Lin Dong's long-range shot was saved by the Malaga goalkeeper again, and then there was an incredible scene from the corner.

In the overcrowded Malaga penalty area, no player reached Koke's corner kick, but unfortunately, the ball did not fall in front of Lin Dong, but in front of Turan, and Atletico Madrid's midfielder's shot finally hit the post, and was immediately pressed under the goalkeeper.

It was also Atletico's best chance in the first half, and in the following time, although Atletico had another shot, the ball was not in the range of the goal, let alone Malaga, and they did not threaten the Atletico goal at all for the rest of the time.

"Jorge, you need to be more patient and pay more attention to the position of your teammates" Back in the dressing room, Simeone said to Koke, but Simeone said this not only to Koke, but also to the other Atletico players.

The subtext is that the Atletico players did not support Koke enough in the first half, but it is also true that the ball passed by Koke in the first half rarely returned to his feet.

"Lin ~~ You can start anywhere in the second half" If it was before, Simeone would never say this kind of thing to Lin Dong.

As for Atletico Madrid's players, except for someone, maybe there is not much jealousy, Lin Dong's data is there, the goal rate is there, and if Lin Dong kicks up, the chances of scoring goals are undoubtedly much greater, and Lin Dong has always been not alone.

Of course, Lin Dong's Dudu is actually relative, if Lin Dong's efficiency is not high, if his sense of smell is not sensitive, then he will definitely be a big Dubi.

Simeone then made another change in personnel, with Oliver Torres coming on, and the youngsters had little effect on the pitch in the first half, and the situation in the first half was not suitable for the youngsters.

Adrian Lopes came on, and this season, Adrian Lopes and Raul Garcia can be regarded as Atletico Madrid's substitutes, and they often have wonderful performances on the bench.

Especially Adrian López, Raul Garcia is a member of the rotation and often starts, but Adrian López is almost a pure substitute, as long as Turan or Coke is not injured, then the starter will definitely not have a chance with Adrian López.
