Atleti: The Cup, Last Bullet to Redeem Themselves

2025-03-18 Diario As

After a difficult week, Atlético de Madrid clings to the Copa del Rey as a lifeline. Defeats against Madrid and Barcelona have been a severe blow, moving the team away from the fight for the Champions League and complicating their options in the League.

Despite the accumulated physical and mental fatigue, the team showed character and competed head-to-head against their rivals, dominating at times. Now, all Rojiblancos hopes are focused on the return of the Copa del Rey semifinals, where they will seek to turn the score around against Barcelona at the Metropolitano.

A victory would allow them to advance to the final and have the opportunity to take revenge on their two great rivals, especially if Madrid also manages to qualify. Atleti will seek to relive the feat of 2013, when they conquered the Cup against their eternal rival.

Simeone will take advantage of the international break to recover his players physically and mentally, thoroughly preparing for the crucial Cup match. The team has arguments to believe in the comeback: Julián’s goalscoring ability, Giuliano’s creativity, Barrios’ solidity, and De Paul’s good moment are reasons for optimism.

The key will be to recover the best version of key players like Griezmann and the prompt recovery of Koke. Despite the adversities, Atleti has a favorable calendar in the League and still aspires to climb positions in the standings. With the claw and fighting spirit that characterize the team, the Rojiblancos will not give up and will fight to the end to bring joy to their fans.

Peiró: An Unforgettable Legacy at Atlético and Málaga

2025-03-18 Diario As

Today we remember Joaquín Peiró, a legend of Atlético de Madrid and a key figure in the history of Málaga. Five years after his passing, his impact endures among both the Colchoneros and the Malaguistas.

As an Atlético player, Peiró, nicknamed ‘The Greyhound of Cuatro Caminos,’ formed the fearsome ‘infernal wing’ with Collar, conquering two consecutive Copas against Real Madrid and the 1962 Recopa.

His quality led him to play in the 1962 Chile and 1966 England World Cups, leaving his mark on the Spanish national team. After his successful stint in Italian football, Peiró proved his worth as a coach.

At Málaga, he built a vibrant team that achieved promotion to the First Division in the 1998-99 season and consolidated its position in the top flight. His charisma and ability to manage groups allowed him to get the most out of players like Darío Silva.

Despite not materializing, his interest in signing young talents such as Samuel Eto’o and Pedro Munitis demonstrates his vision for spotting talent. Although his time on the Rojiblanco bench was brief, his legacy as a player is unquestionable.

Peiró is still fondly remembered and admired by Atlético and Málaga fans. His name endures in the Metropolitano and in La Rosaleda, where the home bench bears his name as a tribute to his career. A true idol who left an indelible mark on the history of Spanish football.

Oblak: Record and Challenge for the Zamora Trophy

2025-03-17 Diario As

Jan Oblak, a Rojiblancos legend, reached an impressive milestone by equaling Tomás Reñones as the third player with the most appearances in Atlético’s history, totaling 483 appearances. However, the joy was tempered in the last match, where a late goal complicated his fight for the sixth Zamora Trophy.

Despite an impeccable performance, where he could do nothing to prevent the rival goals, Oblak saw his individual goal moving away. The goalkeeper aspires to make history as the first goalkeeper to win six Zamoras, equaling the record of Valdés and Ramallets.

His path, which seemed firm, has become complicated in recent days. He received six goals in the last two games, contrasting with his great performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League, where he kept a clean sheet.

This recent negative streak has affected his statistics, raising his average to 0.88 goals conceded per game. Although Atlético remains one of the least scored teams, David Soria, with similar numbers, is hot on his heels in the fight for the Zamora. These adverse results leave aftershocks on Oblak, who now faces a more tight competition for the prestigious award. Share your opinion on the moment of Oblak and Atlético!

Gameiro: A Globe-Trotting Goalscorer Who Left His Mark in Spain

2025-03-17 Diario As

Kevin Gameiro, the French striker, has announced his retirement from football at the age of 37, leaving behind a career full of goals and titles. Although he played for several teams, his time in Spanish football, especially at Sevilla, Valencia, and Atlético de Madrid, was the most outstanding.

At Sevilla, Gameiro became an idol, key in the conquest of three consecutive Europa Leagues. His courage in scoring the decisive penalty in the final in Turin, despite being injured, consecrated him as a Sevilla legend.

Atlético de Madrid bet heavily on him in 2016, and although he had a notable first season, he did not quite find his ideal place in the Metropolitano. Despite not participating in the Europa League final that the club won in 2018, Gameiro added this trophy to his record.

In Valencia, Gameiro shone again, contributing decisively to the conquest of the Copa del Rey in 2019, a title highly celebrated by the Che fans. His goal in the final against Barcelona will be etched in the memory of Valencianistas. Gameiro retires leaving a pleasant memory in all the Spanish teams he played for, demonstrating his quality and dedication in every match.
