VIDEO: Julián Álvarez misses penalty in Atlético v Mallorca, LaLiga | OneFootball

As part of the fifth round of LaLiga, Atlético de Madrid visited Mallorca at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix in search of a victory that would allow them to start closing in on the top spots of the tournament after a poor start.

Before the quarter-hour mark, the team led by Diego Simeone had an unbeatable chance to open the scoring, as after a handball in the box, the match referee, Francisco José Hernández Maeso, awarded a penalty.

The player in charge of the shot was Julián Alvarez, the Argentine forward who already has a goal in the tournament. The ‘Spider’ decided to open his foot with a powerful shot to the left post of goalkeeper Leo Román, who dove that way and, with a good reaction, denied him the goal.
