Cholo Simeone analyzed the triumph of Atlético ante The Palms.
Giuliano’s match and attitude in each match. “It is appropriate to talk about the good game the team played after coming out of the bad game we played against Betis. We repeated a good game in our stadium, controlled until the end, with a response from Giuliano and Molina, who had been criticized, playing a spectacular game “Clement, Galán maintaining the level, Pablo’s time gave us vitality, everyone played an important game and generated enthusiasm for us.”
Goal from Giuliano: “I don’t like talking about 30 years ago because of his age. I see Giuliano as a football player, since we decided for him to stay it was the same as with another player, he can help us. I only think about the team, I don’t think about nobody or anyone, it’s no different because he’s my son.”
Images of people’s help in Valencia: “I have no doubt that the Spanish people have responded in an incredible way to a very sad situation. I did not see what happened outside the stadium, but I am sure that they have supported each other a lot in a moment that affects us all. The minute of silence and the applause was from the heart”.
Justice with Giuliano: “He did what he had to do, that’s why he is at Atlético. He has a responsibility that has no name, they are footballers, I don’t watch so many films. Those who run play and those who run less play less.
Griezmann: The other day against Vic he came in very well and today he may not have had those brilliant games. But it’s the 400th match, and if someone isn’t doing well, it can be understood.
Team pressure and recoveries. “The game in which we did not respond to what one wants was the one against Betis. Against Real you can criticize, but something was played, we played to defend. If we won, no one would have remembered. It was played badly because there was no attack, but it had a style of play. Against Betis it was not played, any criticism is fair because it was not played, there was no attitude. Against Vic we had good intentions and today we repeated it against Lille there was a great first half and against Leganés a good second. time”.
Train your child: “Giuliano was an Atlético de Madrid player, he grew up with the club from the age of 16. The club did not spend money to buy a son, he is a boy who was in the quarry, he went to the Games and did well, the coach go and we believe he can help. He will have good games and bad ones, but he surely has what it takes.”
Return of injured players. “The return of Clement, who was fine when he played. He has great enthusiasm, he showed enthusiasm when he wasn’t playing and the desire to want to play. He came back in the same way, with some pain but doing well. Pablo is a very important player, he has a rhythm that we don’t have and he needs to find the goal, because when he does it will be important for both Atlético and the Spanish National Team.”
