The well-known journalist from 'El Chiringuito' announced his favorite to win the league championship

Barça Achieved a Spectacular Comeback at the Metropolitano, overcoming Atlético de Madrid with a resounding 2-4. Hansi Flick's team was losing 2-0 with 20 minutes left, but things changed in the final minutes. It must be said that Atlético contributed significantly to this outcome...

Lewandowski, Lamine, and Ferran, with two goals, were the protagonists, scoring the goals that turned the score around after the initial goals by Julián Álvarez and Sorloth. With this victory, the blaugrana team continues to demonstrate their strong aspiration for LaLiga.

Barça Came Back Against Atlético in Just 20 Minutes, Incredible and Ridiculous Atlético

The 2-0, scored by Sorloth in the 70th minute, seemed to seal Barça's fate, but Lewandowski quickly dispelled that idea. The Polish striker connected an impeccable volley first-time, after receiving an excellent pass from Íñigo Martínez at the edge of the area. The ball slipped past Jan Oblak's left post, igniting his teammates and giving the team new momentum.

The goal increased the tension in the match, and it was at that moment when Ferran, who had just entered the field, seized the opportunity. The forward headed a precise cross from Raphinha to the near post, putting the score at 2-2. The equalizer came in the 78th minute.

The match remained unpredictable, and in added time, the decisive goal arrived. Lamine Yamal, with his usual shot from the edge, saw the ball deflect off Reinildo. The ball changed its trajectory and deceived Oblak, finally slipping into the net to seal the 2-3 in the 92nd minute.

Finally, a loss in a dangerous area by Pablo Barrios resulted in Ferran's second goal and the fourth of the night. Barça managed to score up to 4 goals against Atlético in a span of 26 minutes.

What Is Edu Aguirre's Message?

After the match between Barça and Atlético de Madrid, Edu Aguirre was asked on 'El Chiringuito' about the possible winner of LaLiga. The well-known journalist was very clear about his decision.

"This result is misleading. Atleti has collapsed and has done so completely. When Simeone concedes 4 in 20 minutes, well, that's it...", he commented initially.

"But Barça didn't seem like a reliable team to me. They scored 4 and played well in the last half hour and combined well, and Lamine appeared when he had to appear. But Atlético could have scored a few more goals against Barça", he explained.

"The result isn't a 0-4 and then they scored 2 against you. Barça was on the ropes, passing a lot, but without having many chances until the 70th minute. I don't think it's enough to say they've won half the League", he concluded.
