Atlético Sharpens Weapons for Madrid Derby
Atlético de Madrid is intensely preparing to host Rayo Vallecano at the Metropolitano. The Rojiblancos trained this Tuesday in Majadahonda, honing their aim for a crucial match in LaLiga’s matchday 33.
The session, led by a motivated Diego Simeone, focused on possession, speed, and anticipation exercises, seeking to refine the strategy to return to the path of victory. A notable aspect of the training was the absence of Pablo Barrios, who remained in the gym for load management.
However, his participation in the derby is not ruled out, generating optimism in the coaching staff and the fans. Jan Oblak rejoined the group, adding experience and security to the team.
Simeone included young talents from Atlético B and CUC Villalba, integrating them into group dynamics and enhancing their development. The Argentine coach divided the squad into small teams to promote competitiveness and precision in tight spaces. Atlético is focused on delivering a great performance in front of their fans and adding three vital points to their goal of consolidating their position at the top of the table.
