Let us dive into the Atletico Madrid vs Cadiz player ratings for a new La Liga match played at Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in the capital.
It was a perfect night for Atletico Madrid to prove they are title contenders, they received a visit from a surprising Cadiz FC tonight. The recently promoted squad has been one of the season’s underdogs but they were bound to get a reality check this evening. Due to Barcelona and Real Madrid’s poor level of performance, ‘Cholo’ Simeone’s players are considered the top squad in Spain right now.
Having players like Luis Suarez and Joao Felix leading the attack is good enough to believe they can do great things this season. The young Portuguese forward confirmed he is currently one of the best players in Spanish football with a header goal to open the count for the Colchoneros. Soon after that, Marcos Llorente scored with some aid from the Cadiz goalkeeper in a ghastly mistake. With this comfortable lead, Simeone’s boys were off to the dressing room to get some rest.
Joao and Suarez, a perfect partnership.
Diego Simeone got living proof of what Joao Felix and Luis Suarez will be able to accomplish this season for Atletico Madrid. Both players combined beautifully for the third goal of the evening at the Metropolitano. Joao set Suarez up for his goal with a sublime assist, then he scored the fourth goal after an assist from Correa.
With their performances tonight, both forwards share the top of the goal-scoring table with five each. Atletico Madrid’s performance this evening was perfect in every way. This is the type of football the Colchoneros want their club to play from now on. Diego Simeone can finally start thinking he has one of the season’s top title contenders. Tonight, his squad goes to bed as La Liga’s top club.
