Atletico Madrid returns in the best shape against Osasuna

The Atletico coach celebrated the victory at El Sadar and once again kept a clean sheet. It was visible that Atletico Madrid and Diego Simeone were willing to give everything for three points.

Important victory before Champions League

We came from a hard blow, difficult because there were only a few days to prepare for this match against a very tough, strong team that knows what they are playing and arrives in the area with people. We started very well beyond the goal, a good step and Marcos in the middle gives us what we all know. A great match from Vrsaljko allowed us to exploit all the good characteristics of Marcos in that space forward. Joao and Suarez did a great job for the team. Herrera had a great game, Koke grew a lot and everyone, Gimenez, Savic, Reinildo defensively, Carrasco – we were very regular and balanced. And what you see, the hunger to win. Luck also influences, the goal of the first half could be the goal that weakened us and in the second half two great goals came.

Motivation through the roof

The blow the other day hurt us. There was a very good response in a few days. People who hadn’t been playing entered and did very well and those who entered did so as the match requested. Felipe had a fantastic second half and we need everyone very well, we entered a space where there is no time for anything. We had been suffering in these situations for a while where before we always felt stronger. We returned to generate defensive security and the team has talent, goal, we were able to take advantage of the forcefulness of Joao, Suarez and Correa and that allowed us to win the game on a very tough field. Atletico Madrid won a very important game exactly before the Champions League clash.
