Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone is confident his side can continue their fine form for the rest of the season after their Copa del Rey semi-final exit ahead of Sunday’s trip to Sevilla in La Liga.
‘Since I’ve been at Atlético for a long time, I’ve always been looking for real growth. I understand that there is still a lot of growth ahead for everything,’ Simeone said. ‘We are excited and challenged by the legacy we leave behind. It’s important เล่นเกมคาสิโน UFABET ทันสมัย ฝากถอนง่าย because the scenarios that were possible and hopefully today are. ‘
‘We faced and competed very well against Real Madrid and Barcelona and it is an important legacy for the players who came. For those who started playing in 2013 and for those who continue to represent the club by competing today.’
‘The other day I told the players, ‘I am proud of you and you are leaving a legacy in history. What is it? Before, it was possible to be in the conversation, but now we compete with them. It is more difficult, but that is the first step and the first step must be taken. ‘
‘We still said the same thing after the game (on Wednesday), focus on the game against Sevilla. Be ready for it, against an opponent who has had good results and bad results this season. But in terms of playing, they always play well. It’s a difficult game on their pitch and we have to take the game to the point where we can hurt them.’
Asked if he needed to improve mentally or tactically, the Argentine coach replied: ‘I don’t want to talk about the first one because we can’t do much. I want to express my opinion and answer the questions I am asked.’
‘I understand that we competed well in the Champions League and the Copa del Rey. We lost against strong opponents, especially in the cup, and you know what I think about what happened in the Champions League. We competed and now we are focused on Sevilla.’
