RC Celta took to the Wanda Metropolitano pitch with the clear intention of being protagonists. Coudet’s team looked for the ball and did not allow Atlético to feel comfortable at any time, but the effectiveness of the Madrid team was superior.
Brazilian Renan Lodi gave the home side the lead ten minutes before the break, a goal that did not defeat the sky blue side. The Vigo players recovered their strength and came back in the second half, but again Lodi appeared to score the definitive 2-0.
A good match for RC Celta, which, from now on, must think about the next match at Abanca Balaídos against RCD Mallorca. In Vigo, the Olivian team has gone four consecutive matchdays without losing and will fight to extend the good streak at home.
