In a nail-biting encounter at Wanda Metropolitano, Atletico Madrid squeezed past Real Betis thanks to an impressive second-half strike from Angel Correa at 01:26:14 that broke the deadlock and made the score 1-0. This goal was a significant turning point in the match and proved decisive for Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid maintained a dominance in the game, clearly reflected in the number of shots they took compared to Betis. The home team registered 7 shots on target compared to just 2 from the away team. This higher number of attempts on goal undoubtedly put additional pressure on the Betis defense, outrigging the Betis offense's efforts which were reflected in their 4 off-target shots compared to Atletico’s 6.

Team discipline also played a catalytic role, there were three yellow cards shown in the match. Home team player Nahuel Molina Lucero received a yellow card in the first half at 00:35:39. On the away team, Ayoze Perez and Willian Jose received yellow cards in the second half, breaking their momentum, and potentially shifting the match’s momentum toward Atletico Madrid.

Comparing the fouls, Atletico committed a much higher number at 20 compared to Betis's 11. However, they did not lead to dire consequences for Atletico, as they received only one yellow card and no red cards.

The effectiveness of Atletico’s attacking strategy is reflected in the corner kick stats, where Atletico Madrid had a clear advantage with 5 compared to a solitary corner kick from Betis. This reveals the Madrid side's offensive command and pressure, constantly threatening Betis' half.

The home team also grabbed an advantage in the offside tally, marking themselves offside 3 times, indicating their aggressive forward pushes. In contrast, Betis maintained a cleaner slate, with 0 offsides, a reflection of a possibly more cautious or less aggressive forward strategy.

Overall, Atletico Madrid displayed a more dominant and aggressive performance, which refined their attacking quality. Their tactical discipline despite a high number of fouls and commanding presence on the field reflects in the winning shot by Angel Correa. This game revealed their attacking potential, with an emphasis on maintaining pressure up-front, which could be especially useful for bettors to consider in future games.
