Copa del Rey: A Historical Boost for Atlético

2025-04-02 Marca

The Copa del Rey has historically been a key tournament for Atlético de Madrid, acting as a catalyst in difficult times. Santi Denia and Diego Godín recall how the Copa boosted the team in the past.

Denia remembers the semi-final won against Barcelona in the 1999-2000 season, while Godín highlights the final won at the Bernabéu in 2013 as a turning point that allowed them to compete head-to-head with the big teams.

Beyond the ten titles that adorn the Metropolitano’s showcases, the Copa has been a balm in complicated seasons. Even in the year of relegation, the team reached the final after brilliantly defeating Barcelona at the Calderón.

Denia points out that the current situation could be similar to that one, where the Copa offered the opportunity to fight for a title when LaLiga was not going well. Godín remembers the 2013 final against the eternal rival at the Bernabéu as a milestone, where the preparation transcended the tactical and focused on the psychological. He recalls an anecdote in which the coaching staff urged them to ’take ownership of the field’ during the previous training session at the rival stadium. With this spirit, the Atléticos hope that the Copa del Rey can be a new turning point this season.

Simeone: A Lone Roar at the Metropolitano

2025-04-01 Marca

Cholo Simeone finds himself in a solitary battle, defending Atlético de Madrid from unfair refereeing and controversial decisions. After the Champions League elimination, the club seems to be standing aside, leaving Simeone as the sole defender of the fans and the team.

His insistence on denouncing what happened bothers many, but it is precisely that perseverance that defines him. The article criticizes the club’s management, which prioritizes economic interests over the Rojiblanco sentiment.

The lack of reinforcements in the winter market is questioned, despite the obvious shortcomings in the squad. While some praise sponsorship deals, others criticize the lack of support for Simeone and the team.

Questionable decisions by key players are pointed out, such as Koke and Griezmann’s trip to the Superbowl at a crucial moment in the season. Despite everything, Atlético competed at the highest level thanks to Simeone’s leadership, who, although not without errors, always stands up for the team.

The controversial elimination in the Champions League, with controversial refereeing decisions and lack of institutional support, left Simeone alone in the face of adversity. His courage in denouncing what is unfair is an example of the fighting spirit that characterizes Atlético de Madrid. Faced with the passivity of many, Simeone stands as the voice of the Atlético sentiment, defending the honor of the club above all else.

Atleti: Looking to the Future with Ambition

2025-04-02 Marca

The greatness of Atlético de Madrid is forged by looking ahead, overcoming obstacles with the ‘match by match’ philosophy. Focusing on the future, rather than dwelling on the past, is key to continuing to advance as a team and as a club.

The debate about the penalty awarded to Julián Álvarez divides the fans, but many agree that it is time to close that chapter and focus on the challenges ahead.

The admiration for Cholo Simeone is undeniable, for having placed Atleti at the level of Barça or Real Madrid, but that does not prevent questioning the need to continue insisting on specific plays. Greatness is built by overcoming obstacles, without stopping at every setback.

Internally, there is an urge to turn the page and focus on the continuous growth of the team. The feeling of belonging is fundamental, but the economic reality shows that Atleti competes head-to-head with the big teams, an achievement that deserves recognition and that drives us to continue dreaming of an even brighter future. The Metropolitano remains the stage where the red and white passion is lived intensely, driving the team towards new victories and consolidating its place among the greats of Spanish football.

Atlético: Win, Don't Victimise

2025-04-01 Marca

Atlético de Madrid, with one of the best squads in its history and under the management of Simeone, faces crucial challenges. The focus should be on the team’s performance and not on external controversies.

While it is valid to express opinions, Cholo’s energy should focus on how the team has moved away from the league leadership, giving up points against direct rivals or even teams fighting to avoid relegation.

It is essential to analyse the causes of these defeats and draws that have compromised league aspirations. Leaving behind the victim mentality and focusing on concrete objectives such as the Cup and the Club World Cup is vital.

The Atlético fans have great hopes in these tournaments, and with the quality of the squad, Atlético has the potential to make history. However, this will only be possible if the mindset is changed and the continuous reference to referees and Real Madrid is put aside.

Atlético can change the dynamics if they focus on their own game and maximise the potential of their players. The talent is there, all that is missing is a winning mentality that is not tarnished by external factors. Cholo has the key to transform the situation and lead the team to success, as long as he prioritises action over justification.
