Atlético Madrid Shines in the Copa
Atlético Madrid continues its unstoppable run in the Copa del Rey, reaching the semifinals for the second consecutive season. This achievement not only strengthens its position as one of the most consistent teams in the competition but also keeps alive its aspirations to win a title it has been waiting for for twelve years.
Cholo Simeone has repeatedly highlighted the importance of the 2012-2013 final, where the rojiblancos defeated Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu, marking a turning point in their collective mentality.
Since then, the team has shown its ability to ‘bother’ major rivals and position itself as a serious candidate in any tournament. With a 5-0 thrashing of Getafe, Atlético demonstrated its offensive power and determination to fight until the end.
This advancement to the semifinals is no small feat, as only six times before in its history had the team achieved something similar. With options intact in all the tournaments it is competing in, the rojiblancos are closer than ever to lifting another title.
