Diego Pablo Simeone, coach of the Atlético de Madrid
, he agreed that his team, after four days without being able to do so, could train as a group this Monday, to prepare for the clash against him. Seville.
Within the surrealism that has been lived these days in Spain, especially in the capital of Spain, with dog sleds, people skiing in the Castellana, guys running almost naked through sub-zero Madrid neighborhoods or other dinosaur dresses walking through the snow, the Athletic raised the bar a little higher.
The mattress coach already pointed it out, in the face of adversity “work, will and imagination.” And that is what all the mattresses put into the fray to overcome the collapse they have experienced Madrid and be able to get together in the Metropolitan to be able to train.
“The need to find alternatives and creativity to train, get together, a great job from the employees so that we could work on the field. We were coming in vans. The main roads are fine, but in urbanizations it is difficult to get out. It was necessary to go to the meeting points. Fortunately we were able to train well ”, said the coach at the press conference.
A reflection that made perfect sense when the rojiblancos players shared some videos of how they had managed to reach the field. The situation was as follows, collection points were created for those who lived relatively close by and got together to share a vehicle and get to the Metropolitan. Others were able to arrive in their private vehicles.
Some as Joao Felix they had to leave their respective residential areas, walking through the snow to reach them. But is that once at the meeting point, the vehicles were available. Even a kind of Fiat panda that delighted the mattresses like Marcos Llorente, who could not avoid sharing on social networks the image of the overtaking with the music of the popular song of the Fary of the 'Bumper Cars'.
He was not the only one, the situation, comical, was shared by several players. Willingness and imagination to keep training. Mattress fans, on social networks they echoed the circumstance that led some to reflect on some like @juanjorpas, which is almost a divine sign of the path to the title of The league.
