Date:

Diego Simeonecoach of Atletico Madrida weight was lifted from his shoulders with purpose Marcos Llorente, the second in his team, who sentenced the pass in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey match I raised. He celebrated it with enthusiasm. And then he reviewed the Ciutat de Valencia game.

How do you see Marcos Llorente?

“As you saw, there is no much difference. He is growing, returning to the player he was in LaLiga when we won the championship, last season he had to play the roles he was capable of, but he was not comfortable. When he has that speed, being new in the Determination, to see, is decisive for us and we are happy for him and for how he helps the team”.

What happened at the break after the first part

“I think the first half was flat, it wasn’t good, imprecise, we lost balls, rushed, they did a good job of pressing us to not find Griezmann and Barrios, but we didn’t play. In the second half we opened Griezmann and we scored We started to improve, we play every three days and we talked about playing ball, because they are boys who are good at playing football. When they join forces, they don’t rush, they don’t have anxiety. that blocks you. Correa’s entry gave us more vertigo Pablo is not bad, but he understood that the great ones have to stay, but Pablo is not worse than others. way or like in Almería it is always important For us, he is one of the guys who has played the most. We didn’t make any changes on the bench and that’s why we left Correa on the bench and it turned out quite well. The team grew, played more calmly, we had scoring opportunities and it’s us. I like it. We love it in driving it.”

First shot on goal, goal

“I was telling Morata, you put in the hardest, going backwards, without a good angle. To fail you have to be there. The players that appear are Correa, Marcos and there are situations, when there is silence and belief that that, it helps us and it is good for us. This victory is good for us, we have to be together with all four legs this weekend, people are important so they give us strength, strength and let’s continue on this upward line”.

Fear after 0-1

“There is a rival playing and when they lose they try to score, they are encouraged, they are braver, they are more relaxed in the attack and it is normal that the winning team comes back. If you cannot continue the match. counterattack and take advantage of what the rival is doing can happen and if like now you hit a counterattack you can define the game”.

Nahuel Molina and his connection with Llorente

“They are doing very well, it is a hard band for the rivals. Between Rodrigo, Koke, Barrios in the middle and Llorente further up to associate, it is a band that does damage and we need to be strong. Molina has been playing usually, we have little substitute in that position and what he can give us will be asked for.”

The best result?

“The best thing is the change of play from the first half to the second. After the break much better. At first there were mistakes, we didn’t associate ourselves, there were many losses and everything caused us not to score a goal situations. A very flat time. In the second, after talking in the locker room, we came out better”.

How do you see the team?

“Since we came back from the World Cup, the team is growing. We had a stoppage in the first 35 minutes, but I was left with the reaction. We understand that we have to play, to be calm. They did not have important goal situations and the this field is very difficult for us. There are positive things.”

“It’s important for the club. We told him. He’s always playing, he’s always with the most minutes played. Sometimes as a starter, sometimes as revulsion, always for whatever is needed. Now he comes in with what he has him, hierarchy, ability, vision of the game, he cannot make a fantastic shot on a goal. We will stay with this Correa, he is what we need”.
