When Alexander Sørloth was brought to Madrid this summer, it was as La Liga’s next highest scoring player. Bigger than Bellingham, bigger than Lewandowski. Atletico coach Diego Simeone had pointed to the Norwegian Viking: We want him! Sørloth was signed, had a few months of running-in, before the Norwegian international has taken over in La Liga. On Sunday, Sørloth stood as the match winner.
11 games in a row with a win. Sørloth has delivered 6 goals in the last 8 La Liga games!
With Sørloth’s match-winning goal in the 69th minute, Atletico are in 2nd place in La Liga – ahead of Real Madrid.
For us, Alexander Sørloth, after last season and with the scoring form he has put in this autumn/winter, is the king of La Liga. We love it!
