congrats to Atleti.
They wanted it so hard and they played even harder to win it.
Especially when Turan and Costa were out I felt that the ods were against them. However they showed us what it means to really want the title. I am expecting major changes next season

To illistrate Alex's point regarding pressing. Here is a comparison between us and Atletico in ball recoveries.

As you can see, they won the ball so often in their attacking half. Us, just once and only twice total in their half.

tbf, apart from that spell when Barça was leading, Atletico didn't really try to score a goal that much and they were not that much in our half.

But then again, when they were looking for a goal, Barça couldn't really get back the ball..

Atletico was too good. Their passing were in the same level with 2009 barca. So i dont blame Barcelona. I congratulate Atletico

Yeah but thats not what the graphic is really about. Its not about duration.

It just shows how all the time we won the ball, it was already in our own half.

They won it from us, many times in our defensive third.
