Conor Gallagher Scores First Atletico Madrid Goal to Continue Perfect Start in Spain as Fans Chant Former Chelsea Star's Name

Impressive Midfielder Continues to Shine in La Liga

Conor Gallagher has made an impressive start to his loan spell at Atletico Madrid, scoring his first goal for the club in their 2-0 win over Getafe on Saturday. The 22-year-old midfielder, who joined the Spanish champions from Chelsea in the summer, opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a fine strike from outside the box.

Gallagher's goal was his first for Atletico Madrid and his second in La Liga this season. He has quickly become a key player for Diego Simeone's side, starting all four of their league matches so far.

The England international's performance against Getafe was particularly impressive. He was involved in everything, creating chances, winning back possession and protecting his defense.

Gallagher's goal was also a popular one with the Atletico Madrid fans. They chanted his name throughout the match and gave him a standing ovation when he was substituted off in the second half.

Gallagher's Rise to Prominence

Gallagher has come a long way in a short space of time. He only made his Premier League debut for Chelsea last season, but he quickly established himself as one of the most promising young midfielders in England.

Gallagher's performances for Chelsea earned him a call-up to the England national team, and he made his debut in November 2021. He has since become a regular for the Three Lions, starting four of their last five matches.

Gallagher's loan move to Atletico Madrid is a big opportunity for him to continue his development. He is playing for one of the best clubs in the world and he is learning from one of the best managers in the world, Diego Simeone.

If Gallagher can continue to impress at Atletico Madrid, he will be a valuable asset for Chelsea when he returns to Stamford Bridge next summer.
