Simeone Recharges Batteries for the End of the Season
Diego Simeone, the charismatic coach of Atlético de Madrid, has shared how he overcame the tough blows suffered after the defeat against Barcelona and the elimination from the Champions League.
The Argentinian coach downplayed both results, pointing out that only the defeat against Barcelona was truly painful, while the elimination in the Champions League was a victory followed by elimination.
Simeone admitted feeling “screwed” after these setbacks, especially due to the match against Barcelona, where he believes the team did not deserve to lose. He acknowledged the great effort made by his players against Barcelona, but lamented that the rival’s capacity ended up overcoming them.
To recharge his batteries and face the final stretch of the season with optimism, Simeone traveled to Argentina to reunite with his family and connect with his roots. This trip allowed him to renew his strength and return with renewed enthusiasm to lead the team.
With his sights set on the ten remaining league matches and the return of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Simeone and his pupils are preparing to give their all on the field. The goal is to add as many points as possible in La Liga and fight for a place in the Copa del Rey final, which will be held in La Cartuja.
