The rulers quickly fell in love with the sustrich and actually gained a share of the grain already in the debut. In the 6th half, Marcos Llorente opened the door after an assist from Julian Alvarez. Never before, Antoine Griezmann quickly defeated the visitors' defense and gained ground, and in the 16th half, Alvarez himself scored the third goal after a rough tackle by goalkeeper Antonin Kinski - the next young Czech.

Atletico's pressure continued, and on the 22nd half, Robin Le Normand brought the ratio to zero, closing the serve after the standard. Tottenham sums up at the end of the first half - Pedro Porro quickly recovered after Richarlison's transfer.

After the break, Madrid again demonstrated their effectiveness in the attack. In the 55th round, Julian Alvarez scored a double, realizing a Swedish counterattack after a pass from Antoine Griezmann. Finally, the “spurs” again showed signs of life: in the 76th round, Dominic Solanke scored another goal for the guests, but the confrontation did not push into the final match.
