In a tightly contested game for the first round of La Liga 2024/25, Villarreal and Atlético de Madrid drew 2-2 on Monday (19) at Estadio de la Cerámica. The match was characterized by lead changes and the debut of new signings for both teams, but the balance ultimately prevailed.
Villarreal took the lead with a goal from Arnaut Danjuma at 18 minutes of the first half, capitalizing on a defensive error by Atlético. The visitors quickly responded, with Marcos Llorente leveling the score just two minutes later with a powerful shot from outside the box. However, the home team regained the lead with a goal from Koke at 36 minutes, following a beautiful counter-attack.
Just when it seemed that Villarreal would head into halftime with the advantage, Alexander Sorloth, making his debut for Atlético, equalized with a header in stoppage time, rekindling the hopes of Diego Simeone’s team. The forward, who had previously played for Villarreal, was one of the standout performers of the match.
In the second half, the game remained fiercely contested, and Villarreal came close to securing the win when Nicolas Pepé hit the post at 83 minutes. Atlético, which also saw Julián Álvarez make his debut in the final minutes, tried to push for a late winner but couldn’t turn the game around.
The draw leaves both teams with a point on the table and a sense that there is much to improve in the upcoming rounds. Atlético now prepares to face Celta de Vigo next weekend, while Villarreal will have a tough match against Sevilla. Never miss a beat in the world of scores; follow BB score for real-time updates.
