The head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, added his bags to the match against Bruges (3:3) in the Champions League playoffs. Quote from the Argentine faji Marca.

“The match went just as we expected it to – against Liza’s most skillful opponent, the champions. The stench smells of many young and old-timers. We knew it wouldn't be easy.

In the first half we controlled the game, scored two goals and carried out a number of counterattacks, which we could not effectively speed up.

At the break, the supernik turned to the group, and we no longer attacked as before. Brugge scored a goal, then we took the lead 3:

2, and their third goal was the result of our mercy in defense - the stinks were quickly eliminated by this chance.

They could have provided us with more insurance? Judging by the first half, it’s like this.

If you look at the situation as a whole, then nothing is a fair result. The offended teams had little chance and were shortchanged by them. The final match will be held at home, and we agree to a great game,” said Simeone.

The match between Atletico and Brugge will take place on the 24th.
