Speaking about how he prepared himself to score past Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak, Anthony Elanga said: “I do my homework when I come up against other sides and I watched Oblak doesn’t really like that side.
“He comes out and leaves a huge space for me. Of course in that moment, it’s my first touch of the game, I’ve still got to be composed and calm and relaxed.
“I was able to slot it in seeing the space and happy days for us!”
Oblak is widely recognized as one of the best goalkeepers in the world, having won the La Liga ‘Best Goalkeeper’ award 5 times in his career!
The fact that Elanga did his homework by analyzing Oblak’s weak points and scored past him shows his elite mentality and sheer maturity at such a young age.
