Alexander Sørloth scored a dramatic equalizer for Atlético Madrid against Barcelona in a thrilling Copa del Rey semifinal first leg, ending in a 4-4 draw. Sørloth has scored in his last four appearances at Barcelona, often making decisive contributions in the dying moments of matches. He noted his awareness of the game's dynamics and how to exploit Barcelona's high defensive line. This performance sets the stage for an exciting second leg, as both teams prepare for another high-stakes encounter in Madrid.
"It's such a good feeling playing in Barcelona," Sørloth told ESPN after the game. "I think this is the fourth game I score against Barcelona here in Barcelona."
"It's just about movement," he added. "I was watching on the bench, like last time, seeing where the space is. It's normally on the opposite side of the defence because they focus a lot on the ball."
