The 3 Keys to the Match

- Aerial dominance: Atletico won the battles in the air, particularly from corners (8 for Atletico, 4 for Getafe). A clear physical advantage.
- Atletico’s high press: Getafe struggled to build from the back, suffocated by constant pressure. High turnovers led to quick and dangerous transitions.
