Atlético Fans: Fighting to the End for the Truth in Champions League!

The International Union of Atlético de Madrid Fan Clubs isn’t giving up its fight to clarify what happened in the penalty shootout of the Champions League match.

After an expert report detected anomalies in the video used by UEFA to justify the annulment of Julián Alvarez’s goal, the Union of Fan Clubs remains firm in its conviction that something isn’t right.

Eduardo Fernández, president of the Union, has stated that they have not received pressure, but they have noticed how certain media outlets are trying to silence the issue. Despite this, they are determined to go to the end.

Fernández assures that there are more than enough indications to think that there has been an opaque and even illegitimate conduct on the part of UEFA. The Union of Fan Clubs has contacted lawyers to decide what type of legal action to take.

Their main objective is for the penalty shootout to be repeated, although they recognize that it is complicated. However, if they manage to prove that there was bad faith and adulteration of the competition, they will demand all kinds of responsibilities against those responsible.

They are willing to go all the way to Switzerland if necessary to defend the interests of Atlético de Madrid and its fans. The Union of Fan Clubs seeks moral reparation and considers that UEFA should have acknowledged an error and apologized publicly. Their determination is total and they will not rest until justice is done.

Puado in Atlético's Sights: A Signing on the Horizon?

According to ‘Relevo’, the technical secretariat of the Rojiblanco club has held meetings with the striker’s entourage, whose contract expires on June 30.

Puado’s possible arrival at the Metropolitano is viewed positively due to his versatility and experience, with more than 200 games between First and Second Division.

Simeone: Undisputed Legend of Atlético

Diego Pablo Simeone, ‘El Cholo’, continues to build his legend at Atlético de Madrid. After reaching 900 games as a ‘rojiblanco’ in the recent match against Sevilla, the Argentinian is consolidated as an absolute icon of the club.

His career, marked by records and titles, places him in a privileged place in the history of ‘Colchoneros’, alongside another legendary figure like Luis Aragonés.

Although Aragonés still surpasses Simeone in the total number of games (adding player and coach), ‘El Cholo’ holds the record for most games managed, most wins and most titles as a coach.

With eight titles under his command, including two La Liga titles (2013-14 and 2020-21), one Copa del Rey (2012-13), two Europa League titles and two European Super Cups, Simeone has surpassed Aragonés in terms of honours. His impact goes beyond trophies.

Simeone has achieved something that seemed unthinkable: conquering La Liga twice in a period dominated by Real Madrid and Barcelona. First, with a historic points record in the 2013-14 season, and then, reaffirming his hegemony in 2020-21.

‘El Cholo’ has transformed Atlético, restoring the claw, fighting spirit and ambition that characterize it. His legacy is indelible and his name is written in gold letters in the history of the club. A leader who has managed to connect with the fans and take the team to the top.

Saúl: Red and White Passion in Seville Territory

Atlético de Madrid’s return to the Sánchez Pizjuán is always special, especially when an idol like Saúl Ñíguez wears the Sevilla shirt. However, his present at the Andalusian club is not easy, and some gestures have not been well received by Sevilla fans.

Despite being Sevilla’s captain, Saúl’s performance has not met expectations, and certain actions have generated controversy. After Atlético’s elimination from the Champions League, a message of support on social media sparked criticism among Sevilla supporters.

More recently, after Sevilla’s defeat against Atlético, Saúl signed a red and white shirt at the Sánchez Pizjuán itself, an act that, although understandable, did not go unnoticed in a moment of tension. Deportively, Saúl has lost prominence in the team, relegated to the bench in recent matches.

In addition, there have been rumors about possible disagreements with the coach, like other team captains. His future at Sevilla is uncertain, especially considering that he is on loan from Atlético, with a contract until 2027.

In short, Saúl’s situation at Sevilla is complex, divided between his loyalty to Atlético and his commitment to the Andalusian club. One more chapter in the career of a player who has always proudly defended the red and white colors.
