Lenglet: Resilience and Decisive Details
Atlético de Madrid defender Clement Lenglet analyzed the team’s elimination from the Champions League, highlighting a penalty by Julián Alvarez that he described as ‘very strange’. Despite the disappointment, Lenglet emphasized the need to accept the rules and look forward.
‘We came out strong in the match,’ Lenglet commented, acknowledging the difficulty of balancing offensive intensity with defensive solidity against a rival of Real Madrid’s caliber. In his opinion, the team did a good job in both matches, although the final result was not favorable to Atleti.
Honestly, Lenglet admitted the team’s sadness at not reaching the quarter-finals, feeling that they deserved it. However, he stressed that football is often decided by small details, both in the first leg and in the return leg.
Looking ahead, Lenglet urged the team to pick themselves up and focus on the important matches ahead, including the match against Barcelona. He stated that Atlético de Madrid has proven to be a team capable of competing against any rival, and that they must be one hundred percent to face the challenges that await them.
