Dad, you are Atleti

Mundo Deportivo wanted to celebrate the Father's day in a special manner. With the memory of his daughters and sons to six legends of the Atlético de Madrid that contributed to make the rojiblanco club bigger. Since Adrian Escudero, top scorer in mattress history, to Paulo Futre, idol of the generation of the 80s at the Vicente Calderón, passing through the manager Lazaro Albarracin, the Ayala Mouse, which he scored in Atlético's most prestigious title, and Luis Aragones, absolute myth of the entity. Their children remember their career at the club, their favorite players, their best moments… And they all agree that Atleti was and is everything for them. And what better summary than the anecdote related by the children of Enrique Collar, now with Alzheimer's and barely speaking. But last year when he saw Luiz Pereira With a feather with the Atlético crest, he did not hesitate to point and, to the surprise of his relatives, say: “That's my team.”

THE QUESTIONS

2. The most remembered goal / moment

3. Best Atleti player for your father

4. His best moment at Atleti

5. What is Atleti for him

Eva Escudero (daughter of Adrián Escudero)

1. I did not see him play, but looking at his images, you can see what he was: strength, pride, character, his neighborhood team

two. The game of the little hand against Madrid (0-5), 3-6… As a good man from Madrid and an athletic man, what he liked the most was to win against Madrid.

3. Ben barek

4. Be part of the Silk front, the Crystal front,

5. His life. He played on his neighborhood team. It was everything

Luis Aragonés (son of Luis Aragonés)

1. His most iconic image is a photo dressed as a rojiblanco, commanding the grass. And I have another one, at an airport, with the suitcase sitting on the baggage belt.

two. The one from Bayern

3. Leivinha

4. Upload it to First. He bet a lot to return to Atleti in the Second Division and I am sure that if we asked him now, he would say that moment.

5. Everything. He became a man at Atleti, he earned everyone's respect, he made friends … Atleti gave him the opportunity, and that's why it was everything for him.

Six historical figures of Atlético de Madrid through their sons and daughters.

Enrique and Alfredo Collar (sons of Enrique Collar)

1. The tribute party. We got to the stadium, parked in the M30 tunnel and after ten seconds I stopped seeing my father. I panic. People did not stop greeting him. The match was against Bayern,

two. A European Cup match against CSKA Sofía in 58/59. Atleti stayed with nine and that day they play everything, he told Daucik (coach) that he played everything. He always says that that day he was leaving everyone. And another against Fiorentina, final of the Recopa, in which they compared him with Bobby charlton.

3. When I was training with the first team and I was a kid, Ben Barek. Squire helped a lot, and then Peiró, Mendonça, Gárate, Ufarte, Luis, Adelardo

4. The day he was made captain. Miguel He had not retired, but his teammates and the coach wanted him to be. He was proud to be Atleti captain and lift titles.

5. His life. When you leave, they tell you what you would like to do from then on. And he said to be born again to play at Atleti again.

Margarita Albarracín (daughter of the director Lázaro Albarracín)

1. That he went to everything, Atleti was above everything, it has been his life. He did not come to the christening of a son and on my wedding day, which Father Daniel officiated, he called Aerie to ‘apologize’ because that day he could not go to the game.

two. The lack of Luis Aragonés against Bayern in 74

3. Luis Aragonés, Futre, Adelardo, Gárate and Torres, who loves him very much

4. The Double, but I was very happy for him with the Hamburg title, it was the first European after many years

5. Everything. Atleti is everything to him. What did you say Sheepdog, Atleti is inside.

Rubén Ayala (son of the Ayala Mouse)

1. From my father as a player I remember his way of always giving himself on the field, he ran and fought all of them and if he had to throw his head at the ball, he did it. I remember a goal that goes and takes it away, steals it from the defender about to leave the goal and then cuts the goalkeeper and scores the goal.

two. His most remembered goal is undoubtedly that of the Intercontinental because it has the story behind that the Independiente coach said that the Argentines of Atleti would not score a goal and after the game in Argentina he saw his brothers and told them that in Argentina he could not score a goal but that in Madrid I would do it for sure.

3. From what he tells me and the times I have heard him express himself, it must be the black Pereira because whenever he talks about him he says that it was another level and even the expression on his face becomes gigantic.

4. His best moment at Atleti, there if I think he could not differentiate, because the best time of his life was at Atleti and as a player it was the best he experienced. There he finished training and his generation managed to do important things in all the years he was there.

5. Atleti for him is everything. It is the team where he became a man, a team where it is not easy to be captain and he achieved it with Luis Aragonés being the coach. It is without a doubt the place where they most want him and I mean the place because for him, Atlético de Madrid is his home, it is where they most want him and consent to him, it is where he feels loved by the fans and by the club. So Atlético de Madrid for him is discipline, love and the best time of his life… until he had me (laughs).

Paulo Futre (son of Paulo Futre)

1. My best moment as a son was his return to the Calderón with the whole audience chanting “Paulo Paulo Futre Futre”

two. Without a doubt that of the 92 Cup at the Bernabeu

3. He always had a special affinity with the intelligence of top scorer Manolo; and the mastery of Schuster.

4. His best moments at Atleti did not occur at the Calderón but at the Bernabeu: both the 0-4 of 87 and the final of the 92 Cup

5. Atleti is his passion, his life and his legacy.
