Atlético: Going for the Club World Cup
Atlético, ready to conquer the world! After a season of struggle and dedication, our Atlético de Madrid has rightfully earned its participation in the Club World Cup, where it will proudly represent Spanish football alongside Real Madrid.
The draw has resulted in a challenging group, but one worthy of the Rojiblancos: PSG and Botafogo! The debut will be against PSG, the brand-new Champions League champion.
A familiar rival, whom we already defeated in the Champions League group stage with an epic victory in Paris (1-2), thanks to goals from Nahuel Molina and Correa in the dying moments. That triumph gave us wings! The second game will be against Seattle Sounders.
Getting those three points is crucial to advance in the tournament. Botafogo, champion of the Libertadores, completes the group. A historic Brazilian football team that, despite not being at its best, will demand the best version of Atleti.
For Atlético, simply participating in this World Cup is a resounding success, both in sporting, economic and social terms. Being among the best in the world is an achievement we must celebrate. Simeone’s team faces this challenge with the ambition of going as far as possible. The Club World Cup is a unique opportunity to continue making history. Come on, Atleti!
