Game Preview
The fact that the Sounders attacked Botafogo in the finish proves they have quality. Schmetzer’s boys have pressured the Brazilians, and even though Botafogo prevailed 2-1, this indicates Sounders can battle with the best teams in this group.
The downside is their third consecutive loss, with each one allowing two or more goals. The defense needs to step up here and prepare better. Otherwise, the more explosive European teams will do much more damage than Botafogo.
Atletico suffered a huge slam against PSG, who steamrolled over the Spanish team, beating them 4-0. The French side sucked out the life of Simeone’s boys, who looked helpless for the majority of the game. They couldn’t solve the high pressure imposed, therefore, had no chance to defy it.
This was the fourth game in the past five for Atletico with over 3.5 goals. The only difference is that in the previous three, Griezmann, Alvarez, and the boys scored four times, not the rivals.
