Simeone and Atlético: A Track Record of Success in the Semifinals
Atlético Madrid has once again shown its determination by qualifying for the Copa del Rey semifinals, a key objective for the team. For Diego Simeone, this will be his tenth semifinal with Atlético, spread across five Copa del Rey, three Champions League, and two Europa League competitions.
While his record in Copa del Rey semifinals is not overwhelmingly positive, the Argentine coach has achieved great successes, such as the 2013 final victory against Real Madrid.
In European competitions, Simeone has led Atlético to the final in two of the three Champions League semifinals and in both occasions when they played Europa League semifinals, winning the title in 2012 and 2018. With a mix of experience and determination, Atlético aims to conquer a new title and solidify its legacy in Spanish football history.
