Marciniak to whistle: A red and white talisman in the derby
Atlético de Madrid is preparing for an exciting derby at the Metropolitano, where they will seek to overcome the adverse result of the first leg. UEFA has appointed the experienced Szymon Marciniak as the referee for this crucial match.
This name brings back good memories to the Colchoneros fans, as he has led Atlético to seven victories. Marciniak already refereed Atlético this season in their visit to PSG, with a victory for Simeone’s team.
In addition, the Rojiblancos fans fondly remember his performance in the Champions League round of 16 match last season, where Atlético defeated Inter Milan in an exciting penalty shootout, thus achieving qualification.
But without a doubt, the sweetest memory that Marciniak evokes in the Atlético memory is the 2018 European Super Cup, where Simeone’s team beat Real Madrid in extra time with a score of 2-4.
This background fuels the hope of the Colchoneros, who trust that Marciniak’s refereeing will bring good fortune and boost them towards victory in this important derby. With the fans fully committed and the team fighting with determination, the Metropolitano is preparing to experience a magical night.
