The head coach of Atletico Madrid Diego Simeone commented on his team’s victory in the match of the tenth round of the Spanish La Liga against Betis (2:0).

" The team showed a lot of garna gru, a wonderful first half. We went into the break with a 2:0 lead, and there could have been more goals, although Oblak made a great save after Abde's shot.

We went to the break to see that the team was playing very well. In the other half we had a great chance to score a third goal, which seemed likely to occur on one of the counterattacks.

We were opposed by a team that was playing and attacking, made an attacking substitution, played well in the penalty area, but were able to save their goal, and this is an important victory for the championship and for the team.

This is not our best first time.

We had a very good first half against Espanyol and Mallorca, but didn’t score. Another important first half, with scoring chances, on top of two goals scored. Julian and Niko had moments when we could have achieved the same result.

Barrios injury? We know tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Some people have slight discomfort in the local area. Let’s see what’s next,” suggest the words of Simeone AS.
