Argentine star Angel Correa is awaiting the upcoming Derby confrontation between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, this evening, in the second leg of the 16th round of the Champions League, putting his eyes in order to provide a strong performance to compensate for what happened recently, after the harsh punishment imposed by the Competitions Committee by stopping five games against the background of the events of the Getafe match.
According to a report published by the Spanish newspaper “AS”, Korea is aware of the importance of confrontation and the size of the great competition against the Madrid rival, especially since qualifying for the quarter -finals represents a major goal for coach Diego Simeone’s team.
Although Korea will start the meeting on the bench, Simeone may depend on it as an attacking offensive element when needed, as it has become a role closer to the right wing in recent matches.
The attack in the starting lineup will lead Antoine Griezmann and Julian Alvarez, while the Norwegian Alexander Surloth is the primary offensive alternative.
Korea has a distinguished record in the European Championship this season, where he scored three goals, two in Sparta Brag’s goal, and a decisive goal against Paris Saint -Germain giving his team a valuable victory.
In total, he also scored seven goals in all competitions, in addition to providing five assists.
With 459 games in the Rochy Blancos shirt, Korea is ranked sixth in the list of the most participating players in the club’s history, while seeking to reach its 88th goal with the team, and its leadership towards an important victory that strengthens its European ambitions this season.
