Atlético Madrid, the perfect matchday and Simeone's last frontier
Atlético Madrid has signed its 11th consecutive victory after defeating Getafe, adding six in LaLiga, in what represents the second-best streak in the history of the mattress club under the command of Diego Simeone.
Since the defeat against Real Betis in the 11th round, the team has changed radically, scoring 31 goals in favor and receiving only 7 against.
Now, Atlético arrives at the last match of the year tied on points with FC Barcelona, co-leaders of the table, and with the opportunity to continue in the fight for the title even in case of falling at Camp Nou, since the azulgrana team has played one more game. However, Atlético has not been able to beat FC Barcelona at their own stadium throughout the Simeone era, having faced seven different coaches.
