Atlético Femenino cruise at Los Cármenes, keep pressure on Barça | OneFootball

The Atlético de Madrid Femenino once again delivered a dominant performance and returned to the form that dazzled at the start of the season, with wide victories and a vertical game that keeps them in the fight for the lead. After the extra effort in the Champions League against BK Häcken and the league stumble against Madrid CFF, Víctor Martín's team took advantage of the full week of preparation to regain freshness. This fine-tuning was evident at Los Cármenes, where Granada Femenino and Atlético Femenino faced off in a match that clearly leaned in favor of the red and whites.

The start was balanced. Granada showed courage in pressing and had isolated chances that troubled the Atlético defense. However, the clearest opportunities belonged to Atlético Femenino, who tried with long-range shots from Silvia Lloris and a free-kick from Bøe Risa that hit the post. The local goalkeeper Laura Sánchez kept the Andalusian team in the game during the first 45 minutes, where even a possible penalty on Vaquerizo was reviewed but ultimately came to nothing.

Fiamma unleashes the red and white storm in Granada

Everything changed after the break. A long-range shot from Fiamma, deflected by a defender, opened the scoring in the 47’ and gave wings to Atlético Femenino. Barely five minutes later, Fiamma herself scored a stunning goal after a controlled touch and an outside-foot finish that left Sánchez with no chance. The double blow left Granada without a response, retreating and subjected to the visitors' intensity. The red and white superiority soon translated into a third goal, scored by Bøe Risa after capitalizing on a rebound inside the area. Far from being satisfied, Atlético Femenino found the definitive 0-4 in a play into space that Jensen comfortably finished. In the final stretch, Granada sought a consolation goal, especially with a powerful shot from Sierra, but Lola Gallardo responded confidently to seal a victory that keeps the Madrid team second, two points behind the unbeaten Barça.
