It was not easy for the "new" Sporting Javier Clemente start his final sprint in search of the residence to an Atletico Madrid since the arrival of 'Cholo' Simeone has become a seamless team. However, precisely because of the rival that has been before this point has a sweet taste for sportinguismo, although the heads-Colunga in the last minute Courtois turned a corner with a stop of great merit.
The big difference compared to Clemente Sporting Iñaki Tejada last week, is essentially the intensity. Throughout the game, or at least until the physical allowed by the rojiblanco played with a maximum intensity, with an aggressive but not violent football, and trying to harness the speed of his men to attack.
Man for man, he has introduced many changes. The most notable player of the subsidiary Pedro Orfila, head on the right side. The rest more or less similar, but with a double pivot André Castro Eguren slightly novel, and ownership of Colunga at left. The most prominent decision Clemente since his arrival was to take the call Nacho Cases, the player with more technical and judgment of staff, but also the least worker. We will see in the future if a decision point, or simply do not fit into the plans of Clement.
However, I must say that the point was harvested by Sporting found that over looked. It is true that he never lost his face to the party, even after the unfortunate own goal from Canella, but neither was excessive presence in the attack except in set pieces and some other isolated, as the goal stumbled signed by Eguren . Quite the opposite of Atletico Madrid, not to reap the flood of times last week against Racing, yes that was enough to have won comfortably. But the great performance of John Paul and Falcao wet gunpowder, prevented a victory that would have placed them in positions of Champions League.
For Sporting, the first major final of many to come will be next week, when traveling to El Sardinero. The victory seems there definitely essential to avoid sinking into the pit of relegation. If Clement is able to keep the players with the same intensity as this afternoon, stay still possible.
