I watched the game between Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona and it wasn't a game both teams are ready to lose but it happened that Barcelona won. I thought it would end in a draw but when Atletico started doing their counter and defending Barcelona took it personal and it happened that they won ATM, they were too relaxed and they thought they could defend till the end of the game but Barcelona took advantage of the situation at hand, both teams did very well right from the beginning to the end but I don't think Atletico Madrid are the best in the world or in that encounter, so what is Diego Simone talking about, where on earth is he getting this idea from? Sometimes these coaches just say things that they know isn't true, is Atletico Madrid the best in the world even as they lost to Barcelona?
I thought Barcelona and Atletico Madrid would be a tough match and maybe the match would be a goalless draw but we were completely wrong in that match. Barcelona secured a big win against Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid's performance on the pitch was good but they looked sloppy in some areas. For example, although Atletico Madrid played well in the midfield, they did not finish well in the attacking line and the defenders did not perform their duties well. If Atletico Madrid could have played a little better in this match from the defense, then they could have ended the match with a good result against Barcelona. Losing such an important match like this means falling far behind in the competition, as Atlético Madrid already have. Now it is definitely difficult for Atletico Madrid to come back strong again in this tournament.
