The postponed game was choked on Barça well what Atlético has celebrated it. Nevertheless, the roadmap does not vary much with respect to the plan with which the week started. Indeed, the rojiblancos are still leaders and, now, they are the only ones who depend on themselves to conquer the League. But for this to remain so, and as long as the pursuers do not leave points, Simeone's men have to win equally at the Camp Nou.
If Atleti had scored a point in Bilbao, it would be different, but with the defeat the differences in the head are minimal. The defeat of Barça means that Atleti (as long as they win in Elche) would be worth a draw in the Barça fiefdom so that Koeman's men do not overtake him … but Real Madrid stalks. The whites are only two points away and with the goalaverage favorable. As Atleti slackens, Zidane's team will also depend on himself. May 9, one day after the Camp Nou final, there is a Real Madrid-Sevilla absolutely decisive.
So that, Atlético has taken some air and morale. Also, you have seen that the four candidates for the throne are suffering to carry out their parties. For this reason, the coaching staff is making an effort this week in two aspects outside of the strictly sports: first, revive the spirits of a beaten team and, second, convince the locker room that only Elche matters. Looking towards the Camp Nou and having a slip at the Martínez Valero would be unforgivable. The match by match makes a lot of sense now that starts The League of Simeone.
