Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez: Returned to the pitch as sub

Saul (ankle) made his return to the pitch for the Champions League 1-0 match win over FC Rostov on Wednesday.

Analysis:

Saul made his limited return to the squad coming in as a substitute in the 88th minute replacing goal scorer Yannick Carrasco. In his short time out on the pitch he only took one touch and completed one pass. Looking forward, he'll continue to regain match fitness and hope to see more of the pitch in the next match against Sevilla.
