Almeida and Atlético’s situation: “It is not time to doubt the players or Simeone”

MADRID, 17 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, said Monday that after the “hard” week of Atlético de Madrid, with the elimination of the Champions League in the round of 16 and the defeat against FC Barcelona in LaLig committed “.

“It is not time, in my opinion, or to doubt the players or the coach. They have taken us where they have taken us, we have been generated an extraordinary illusion. We are still alive in the league and in a cup, and if we are in that it is because there is a coach and a committed template,” said the first mayor in the presentation of the ‘Castilian Park’ project in the Crystal Tower of Madrid.

Almeida, as a follower of Atlético, described the last week as “very hard” after suffering the elimination in the Champions League last Wednesday at the hands of Real Madrid, his eternal rival, and closing Sunday with the defeat against FC Barcelona, ​​which moves them away from the fight for the lead. “We have gone from drama in drama. It is very difficult to talk because you cannot criticize anything to the players, in my opinion. That is, the players gave it all on Wednesday, they gave everything yesterday,” he said.

For the mayor, the match against the Blaugrana team was “very unfair” because the rojiblancos “made a better game to Lewandowski’s goal (2-1)”. “We did not deserve the punishment we had yesterday, but you play against Barça and you know that any player can kill you at any time. And it is what happened yesterday. But we did, in my opinion, everything we had to do to play a good game. Sometimes it comes out and sometimes not; and unfortunately this week has not left us at anything,” he said.

“Until the 70th minute they made a better game. But when you come from a defeat like the one you had on Wednesday, the way it occurred, having played an extension, and having to play Barça, which is the most in a way in these moments, is very complicated. However, the players responded and if the players responded it is because the coach has responded,” he finished.
