Atlético upset over derby time slot

Atlético de Madrid is upset over the time slot for the derby against Real Madrid, which will be played on Sunday, September 29 at 21:00 at the Cívitas Metropolitano.

The reason is that there will be a midweek round a few days before, in which Real Madrid will play at home against Alavés on Tuesday, September 24 at 21:00 at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium. Therefore, they will have four days to prepare for the match against the red and whites.

Meanwhile, Simeone and his players will travel to Vigo to face Celta at Balaídos on Thursday, September 26 at 21:00, so they will only have two days, including travel, to prepare for a match that is always special for both teams, clubs, and fans.

In the red and white club, they would have understood if LaLiga had scheduled them to play on Wednesday. They consider 24 hours of difference to be understandable, but not 48.

Especially when it is LaLiga’s responsibility to set the schedules so that both Atlético and Real can face the matches at the highest level, especially when they are such important matches. On the other hand, they also did not like that Atlético de Madrid was scheduled to play at 21:00.

This is something that does not convince Atlético de Madrid fans who have to attend the Metropolitano stadium. It is a time slot that forces all fans present at the match to stay up late, and that causes children not to be able to attend and robs sleep from all those people who have to get up early the next day to fulfill their daily tasks.

Atlético de Madrid gets rid of its problems

Atlético de Madrid has managed to get rid of two of its main problems in this summer’s transfer market. João Félix, who did not want to continue in the club and was not to Simeone’s liking, has been sold to Chelsea for more than 50 million euros, a figure far from the 127 million invested in his signing.

Saúl, another player with a high salary and a decreasing role, has been loaned to Sevilla, where he is expected to rediscover his best form. These departures, along with those of Hermoso, Morata, Memphis and Savic, have allowed the club to reduce its wage bill and begin a new cycle with greater peace of mind.

Atlético de Madrid B aim for first win against Antequera

Atlético de Madrid B, the reserve team of the mattress team led by Fernando Torres, will face Antequera CF this Saturday, September 7 at the Centro Deportivo Majadahonda. Torres’ team earned their first point in the previous round in the difficult Group 2 of the Primera RFEF.

Despite deserving to win in their debut, the team could not do so and had to settle for a draw in added time in their visit to Intercity in Alicante. Antequera CF, for its part, has had a week off after the postponement of its match against Marbella.

The Andalusian team has played one game with a scoreless draw in the opening round against Fuenlabrada. Their problems with scoring have weighed down Javi Medina’s team both in preseason matches and in their start to official competition.

Antequera has the entire squad available. In the last head-to-head matches of last season, the victories were split, with a 2-0 home win for Atlético and a loss away for the mattress team.
