Conor Gallagher, Atlético de Madrid player, attended the Laureus Awards gala 2025 in Madrid and shared his reflections on the team’s season. He acknowledged that the lack of titles makes it difficult to call it successful, but highlighted the presence of positive aspects.
Gallagher praised the quality of the group of players and the positive atmosphere in the team, emphasizing that they enjoy playing together. Despite the difficulties in achieving the set objectives, the English player believes that there is much to salvage from this season.
He referred to the controversial penalty disallowed to Julián Álvarez in the Champions League, admitting that the ball touched the player twice. Although he acknowledged that the rules are the rules and that it was difficult to accept because they felt they deserved more, he attributed it to bad luck.
