Atlético resigned weeks ago in the league, for which he wandered more sorrow than glory. But in the midst of that penalty, those of Cholo could seal their classification for the Champions League before the Real Sociedad. The 13th time in the 14 seasons that Simeone has on the bench. And tonight the 'mattresses' ran into an even more inconsequential team in this final stretch, a real society that is finishing a cycle in the worst possible way, lowering their arms and staining the shirt.
In Anoeta this summer there will be a disruption in all the levels of the club. In the offices Roberto Olabe leaves the sports direction, which Eric Bretos will assume. On the bench, Imanol has already announced that he will not continue and his substitute will be the subsidiary technician, Sergio Francisco. But here the stampede does not end. In the last hours it has been leaked that Martín Zubimendi, for which the next Real Madrid coach, Xabi Alonso, leaves Arsenal to get into the orders of Mikel Arteta. And in the midst of goodbye, the team also decided to say goodbye weeks of this season. Only in this way is it explained that at ten minutes I was losing 3-0 in the Metropolitan. And they could be four or five!
Record hat-trick
The fact is that the three goals were scored by a former Rerealist, the Norwegian Alexander Sorloth. In four minutes he scored three goals (minutes 6, 9 and 10), which turned his hat-trick into the fastest in the history of the league. A good first goal finishing off first, a left -handed dug to the strain of the stick in the second and a goal taking advantage of a rude goal of the rear in the third unleashed the euphoria in the stands and the relief of a Simeone that celebrated the goals with desire. Ten minutes and the game was already resolved.
However, the pitiful image of the Real was worsening over the minutes, which showed a blushing defensive fragility. At half an hour, another athletic arrival ended with a pass to the center, where, again, Sorloth appeared to score his fourth goal. Four goals in half an hour. A record that destroyed the Donostiarras at the foot of who scored 16 goals with the Txuri-Urdin shirt.
The real one, not to fit more goals
The second part began with another sulloth auction that was stamped on the wood. He had not changed anything, nor the voracity of the Norwegian nor the parsimony of a Royal Society that decided to parapeted back so that the win did not end in historical ridicule. The unknown resided in seeing how many goals would fall to the Royal Society, which depended more on the ambition of Simeone's, in which except for Sorgeh, the rest also did not show much fang. Those of Imanol ventured with a couple of distant releases that did not disturb a Oblak who is fighting for the Zamora award in this end of the season. And with this placid scenario for the premises in a metropolitan that celebrated the 'Children's Day' at 9 pm by layout of LaLiga they were dripping the minutes between yawn and laughter.
The image of Oyarzabal, Kubo or Brais Méndez on the realistic bench observing how his teammates tried to get the ball off every time Atlético percinated against the visiting area was Dantesque. In the Mminuto74 Correa entered for Sorloth, to which the stadium cheered standing for saving a party without history, without rival and without a soul in a real really worrying society to which difficult times arrive. The Guipuzcoan will live a complicated transition in which they need to succeed with a scorer and see who assumes the gallons of Zubimendi. Atlético, meanwhile, is still pre -season for the Club World Cup.
The fastest triplet in the history of the league
The fastest triplets in the first leagues of the 21st century had starred in Gameiro in the 2016-17 season, (Atlético vs Sporting in 4'44 ''), David Villa in 2005-06 (Valencia vs. Athletic in 4'47 ''), and Luis Suarez in 2023-24 (Almería vs. Granada in 5'24 ''). But now Sortloth lowered him with Atlético against Real Sociedad with three goals in less than four minutes: 3'57 ''. In the case of Poker, who completed in 22 minutes and 32 seconds, it has not been the earliest because the Valencian world did it in 20 minutes against Real Sociedad in 1941 and Rayford in half an hour also in a Sevilla-Oviedo also in that year 41. It is not even the fastest poker of Sorloth himself, which last year marked four to Real Madrid in the stage of Ceramics in 22 minutes and 26 seconds.
