Atlético de Madrid battles fatigue and scheduling
Atlético de Madrid won 3-1 against Slovan Bratislava in a match where the mattress makers did not particularly shine. The team chose to slow down after securing the victory, due to the accumulated fatigue from previous matches.
Cholo Simeone denounced the lack of rest between games, as only 68 hours passed between the apotheosis against Sevilla and the Champions League match. The Argentine coach regretted the lack of flexibility in the distribution of schedules, which could have given the team more rest before the match against Slovan Bratislava. Despite everything, Atlético de Madrid continues to fight to qualify in the Top-8 of the Champions League.
