Atlético de Madrid’s Simeone: “I don’t believe a footballer can forget how to play the ball or score goals; we need to bring them some calm.”
Today, October 31, while some are gearing up to celebrate Halloween, others are set for a rendezvous to support their team in the Copa del Rey. Atlético de Madrid kicks off their campaign hoping for a positive result to lift the spirits of their fans, while Vic will have the same goal in mind as they aim to progress in the tournament.
This match is highly anticipated, as Atlético is one of the most desired teams to compete against, especially since local clubs are eager to face a side that has previously reached the Champions League final.
The Colchoneros have faced a tough week, suffering consecutive defeats: a 1-3 loss to LOSC Lille in the UEFA Champions League and a 0-1 setback against Real Betis in LaLiga EA Sports. Therefore, they are determined to deliver their best performance in the Cup, with players seeking more minutes eager to step into the spotlight.
On the other hand, tonight will be a memorable and historic evening for Vic. The team currently leads the Liga Élite Catalana following a thrilling 3-2 victory over Palamós last weekend. Their goal is to pull off a major surprise against Atlético de Madrid.
