“I am proud of players.” Simeone is satisfied

Diego SimeoneMadrid coach “Atletico”, tried to find the words after departure from the 1/8 finals of the Champions League from the eternal rival – Madrid “Real”. The wards of Diego in the match-answer were overcome “creamy” with a score of 1: 0, although in the first game “Mattresses” were weaker-1: 2.

In a series of Atletico’s penalty, he failed to overcome the opponent and left the tournament.

“I think we played a very good game – we competed incredibly. We could change the account at some points. I am proud of my players. I am pleased with what we showed an exemplary game. Yes, we failed to defeat Real Madrid in the Champions League, but they were hard against us every time.

We played an incredible game with great energy, strength, effort and team game. We controlled the game against a team with very high quality players.

When you are knocked out of the tournament, it is not easy to digest. My team gave everything and deserved applause. The fans were with us until the last second. It was a wonderful day, unfortunately, we couldn’t go through this draw, but I go with a sense of peace, ”Simeone replied.
