Atlético Madrid no longer advance in the league, Diego Simeone begins to pay the price of time passing, but his team never really dies when Europe shows up in the evening. The Colchoneros have indeed succeeded in bringing Liverpool down on the best score possible in light of their recent history. 1-0, on a raccoon goal from Saul at the start of the match, which does not even do full justice to Atlético, since Morata still ate the sheet several times. In short Simeone, much criticized in recent weeks, could have taken the opportunity to show off, but he preferred to smoke the pipe of peace with the fans.

“We are a team that plays as a block. If the attackers had not participated in defensive work, the team would not have done what it was able to do. It has been a good job of all. A difficult, hard match against a great opponent, but we had our clear goal in mind. We started to win the match when we turned at the roundabout to come to the stadium. The reception was impressive. In the eight years I have spent here, I have never seen support like this. ”
