DPablo Simeone He appreciated the victory of Athlete.

Before appearing at a press conference, he explained The match On television with rights. “Happy for the team . We were coming off a Champions League defeat in a game we deserved to win. But Lille was strong, beyond the punishment for which it is not yet known what it was. Today it was the opposite, we defended with great teamwork against a team attacking very well. A great night of Oblak and strength we didn’t have against Lille. We got the game that makes up for the one against Lille.”

“In the first half we had some against that did not flourish. We met with such a goal that we made a mistake at first. Then the equalizer was a good goal, we combined well offensively. The second half was to put the legs in the team with changes. We believe in our football players. This was the compensation for getting a goal option in Griezmann, Who always has something different and on a leash bears the name of the angel for some reason.”

Belt. “When he comes on the field, things always happen. We discussed, I tell him, because he wants to play the whole 90 minutes, like all the players. But he knows how important 12 of the team are.”

The first eight in the Champions. “Relax, this will be very difficult. It’s an important victory , we were coming from losing two games in a row, everyone saw us uncomfortable and now they will see us with enthusiasm. To maintain balance, neither too much nor too little.”

After that, spread out in the press room.

Reflections of Munich or Liverpool. “We knew we were up against a team that was competing very well and had gone through the semi-finals. It’s a very young team that competes incredibly, we had five losses in defense and despite those five losses the team was strong. We could have collapsed, a great goal appeared with Molina’s play, against a team that attacked very well. The same thing happened to us against Lille, we should have scored three or four goals and today the opposite is true. We switched goals, I liked to continue to generate power. We didn’t change the plan and we had an idea.”

The DNA of Atletico. “We had a bad game with Betis, we had an important talk and from there, the intention we played with against Vick despite scoring in the 80′ for a team that wanted to compete, was the same against Las Palmas and the same today. We’re going after that, we can’t get away, it’s been twelve years since this was built and we can’t get away.”

Victoria. “It is an important victory but there is a long way to go. After Betis it wasn’t all bad and now it’s great.”

Dynamics. “It’s to confirm what’s good for us. They may criticize us for the game we played against Real, but there was an idea. Against Betis there was no idea or method, but later, as happened with Vic, Las Palmas or today, at a stadium where it is not easy to win, the team gets a very important result for our course.”

Witsel and Molina. “We talked a lot with Axel, we don’t know if he has a year, two months or six months left, but I enjoyed it, he has quality for that. He has learned to play libero, he makes me very happy, he has always given us everything he has since his arrival.”

Oblak. “After everything he gave us, it could happen that in some matches he was not there. He is so used to us that we need him at this level, and we hope that his colleagues will be able to support him.”

Power. “Last week it was the same against Lille, the football is strong. The associative game is nice, which generates you to attack from all sides, but strength is what puts you on one side or the other.”

Griezmann. “I’m supported this time by Griezmann passing the goal. It would be unfair to say that he stayed because of that, but we needed to match the efforts of each player. Griezmann has another break, he’s another midfielder, he runs the field better and you have a midfielder or a striker who can work better. After Korea and Julian inspect this profile. Everything went well today although Griezmann was not feeling well, but when he is on the court something can happen.”
