Cholo and Vic: A Red and White Connection
Atlético de Madrid’s victory against Vic in the Copa del Rey marked a turning point in the Colchoneros’ season. After a hesitant start, the team found in that match a point of inflection, starting a streak of 15 victories, the best in their history.
But the story goes beyond the simple result. Diego Simeone, acknowledged Vic’s good game and established a special connection with their coach, Ramón Carrascal. Carrascal, a faithful follower of Atlético, predicted a radical change in the team’s course, including a victory against PSG.
And so it was. Since then, the relationship between both coaches has strengthened. Carrascal visited the Ciudad Deportiva de Majadahonda, where he shared experiences with Simeone and his coaching staff.
Cholo, grateful for the support and the prophecy, invited Carrascal to watch the match against FC Barcelona in Montjuïc, where Atlético took the victory. Simeone, always attentive to hunches, considers Carrascal an amulet.
As a sign of gratitude, Cholo has invited the Vic squad and coaching staff to the Metropolitano to witness the exciting match against Athletic. A gesture that reflects the greatness of Atlético and its coach, capable of valuing and recognizing the support received, even from the most unexpected places. Without a doubt, Vic will cheer on Atlético, grateful for the treatment received by the Red and White club, and especially Carrascal for the courtesy shown by Cholo from the first moment.
