In a La Liga match that ended in the early hours of this morning, Atletico beat Espanyol 2-1 at home to win the first of their last four games, with Carrasco, who came off the bench, scoring twice to help the team take all three points.
Simeone still fielded his usual 352 formation in this game, with Carrasco sitting on the bench. In the first half, both sides came and went, but neither of them scored. In the second half, Carrasco came off the bench. In the 51st minute of the match, Cunha cut in, Carrasco made a dunk in the penalty area, swung past the opposing defender, and scored with a right-footed shot to help the team take the lead. In the ensuing match, Condobia was sent off the field with two yellows and one red, and the Spaniard scored through a free kick created by Kondobia's foul to equalize.
In the final moments of the game, the previous goal hero De Thomas fouled the handball in the penalty area, and Carrasco helped the team to rebound through penalties, helping the team to take all three points at the last minute. The goal was also Carrasco's fifth goal of the season, scoring a game-high 7.6 points after the game. Carrasco's first goal was similar to dalian yifang's victory over Shanghai SIPG in the 18 season.
In the 16th round of the 18th season, Dalian Yifang played at home to Shanghai SIPG, and after experiencing a 0:8 bloodbath in the first round, the Dalian team has been renewed after Schuster's training. In the 51st minute of the match, Carrasco received a pass from Riascos in the penalty area, flicked it past the opposing defender and scored with a left-footed shot. These two goals are like mirror goals, one on each side. The match was also one of four games lost that season for 18 seasons of Chinese Super League champions Shanghai SIPG that season.
Coincidentally, in last night's game, one of the original opponents, Wu Lei, played for espanyol, and the two players were still opponents. During his time with Dalian, Carrasco made 52 appearances for the team, scoring 24 goals and contributing 17 assists, leaving dalian fans with many good memories!
Looking forward to all the best in Carrasco's future career!
