A Well-Deserved Break for Atlético
After a frantic month, Atlético de Madrid has been able to enjoy a well-deserved break. Following a draw with Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu and maintaining their second position in the standings, the technical staff gave the squad three days off.
The rojiblanco players will be able to disconnect and recharge their batteries to face another important stretch of the season. In recent weeks, Atlético has played nine matches, with a record of six wins, two draws, and one loss.
The team led by Diego Simeone will not have a Champions League match this week, as they have finished the group stage and will face Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, or Celtic Glasgow in the round of 16.
The team will return to work on Wednesday to prepare for the league match against Celta on Saturday at the Metropolitano. Then, Atlético will visit Mestalla and later face an opponent in the Copa del Rey semifinals, which will be determined on Wednesday between Barcelona, Real Sociedad, or Real Madrid. With this break, Atlético de Madrid will be able to face the upcoming challenges with energy and motivation.
