Atleti: In the Shadow of Giants, Stronger Than Ever!
Atlético de Madrid is once again comfortable in its role as the ‘dark horse’ in La Liga. After a start to the season with ups and downs, Simeone’s team has regained its characteristic competitiveness, rubbing shoulders with Real Madrid and Barcelona.
‘Cholo’ Simeone feels comfortable with the media spotlight on the other two big teams, which allows the Rojiblancos to work with less pressure and focus on their game. This ‘underdog’ role benefits the team, the fans, and the coach himself.
After overcoming difficult moments, Atlético has demonstrated its ability to fight and its resilience. The goal now is the Copa del Rey, a competition highly valued by the club, after the painful episode last season.
While Real Madrid faces the Champions League play-off, Atlético takes the opportunity to catch its breath and prepare conscientiously. The team managed to qualify among the top eight in the qualifying phase of the European tournament, exceeding initial expectations.
This good performance in Europe, along with the Copa del Rey, fuels the ambition of Atlético de Madrid, which feels prepared to face any challenge. The team learns from each game, even from moments of suffering, to grow and strengthen itself for the Champions League and Copa del Rey knockouts. Atleti, stronger than ever, dreams of great things.
