Lodi silences Old Trafford with header

Atletico Madrid took the lead at Old Trafford. Atletico Madrid attacked, Joao Felix laid off to Antoine Griezmann, he found Renan Lodi and the Brazilian headed home. 

While Man Utd wanted a foul from Reinildo on Elanga near the Atletico Madrid box, Simeone's side went on the counter.

A counter which involved just eight touches and a long ball was played for Joao Felix. The Portuguese was patient enough to wait for the arrival of a teammate.

The Portuguese saw how Antoine Griezmann came from behind and he backheeled the ball to him. The Frenchman then lifted his head and saw Lodi all on his own.

There, the Brazilian, who has become a sort of winger in Simeone's side, headed the ball before Dalot could get there and beat De Gea at the back stick.
