Diego Simeonecoach of Atletico Madridfinished satisfied with his team’s victory against Valladolid in Zorrilla. At the end of the crash, he attended Movistar League.
The fight
“We knew it would be like this, against a brave team, making the most of counterattacks. The game was very good, with a three-nil advantage, the penalty appeared without their risk and that puts them in The second half It was a different start, they were more fired up, they took advantage of the set piece to score the second, the changes came in. The changes came in handy with ‘I hit you, you hit me’, because we more forceful. Correa and Memphis came in to gain more advantage and not defend that result that was lacking”.
Punishment from Hermoso
“I saw it but… we won 5-2.”
Changes in Valladolid
“The game developed in a way in the first half, the penalty put them in the game, when their second goal came, the changes we made to take advantage of the spaces, with Correa and Memphis, we took advantage of them and the last two goals speak of a game-changing step”.
griezmann
“He is a special player, the other day I said that he is one of the best footballers to come through Atlético de Madrid in its history. I hope we can keep him like that for a long time. He made a great effort and is in a good moment.”
be second
“The goal is for them to recover, which is a difficult match, it is difficult, intense, there are three days left to compete, Cádiz is in the same situation and it will be another difficult match.”
Later, he appeared in the press room.
The problems in the second half
“I don’t think it was nerves. There was a dedicated opponent, who plays with a very high passion, he breaks a lot. In the first half we were forceful and orderly until the penalty that put Valladolid in the game. The 1 – 3 gave way to another chapter. We couldn’t build until 20-25, until 2-3, a counter that would allow us to close the game. We decided with what we had on the bench, we used Memphis and Correa in the spaces for that round trip return and what luckily we imagined happened. They ran well, Antoine and I finished them and we were able to score more goals in a nice 2-5 to see, although for the coaches something more chaotic “.
Added forward
“I thank them for being ready to perform when the team needs them, not the coach. Morata played a good game, he appeared where he should. Then Correa came on well, ended up being 2-4 and what to say about Memphis’ play It’s on him, he should put it on more often because we’re going to ask for it.”
The importance of lanes
“Playing full-backs without depth, goals, travel… it’s very difficult, but very few can do it at a high level. Yannick is in a very good moment and Molina is what we were looking for. It’s what we had seen, he has arrivals, goals, assists, travel… Few people can play in the whole band like him. With a lot of work he gets a place. He feels strong”.
the lateral centers
“We started late, at the wrong time and in a hurry. When you arrive late, the rival takes advantage and they worked hard. In the second half, when Escudero arrived, they did it from the sides and generated. We tried with Correa and Saúl got hold of him and they are very good. They play to run the lanes and put a lot of people in the area. Since the arrival of the coach, they have become a complex, intense team… “
