章 507: Checking Out the Competition

After conceding a goal, the Atlético Madrid players became more daring on the attack. They launched a series of relentless attacks, hoping to score an equalizer and possibly a winning goal before the ninety-minute mark. However, all their efforts still remained fruitless due to the tactical discipline and defensive solidity of the Juventus squad.

The Juventus players, on their part, were quite impressive during the final minutes. By employing strategies like time wasting, fouls, and parking the bus, they repeatedly took the sting out of Atlético Madrid's offensive attempts. They also constantly fell back as a team and remained solid in defense in order to deny the Madrid-based team any chance to score a goal. As such, they maintained their lead and managed to win the game with a score of 2:1 after six minutes of injury time.
