Koke Resurrectioncaptain of Atletico Madridconsidered this Wednesday, after the elimination in the semifinals of the Champions League against him Manchester City (0-0), that his team deserved more in the second leg and expressed that the rival players threw themselves “to the ground” and lost “time” when they suffered the most on the field.

“First of all, I am proud of each one of my teammates and everything that surrounds our people and our fans, because when you leave everything behind, there is nothing to blame. Today we were very excited and eager. Champions fantastic”, explained the midfielder at a press conference at the end of the match at the Wanda Metropolitano.

“In the end, we lacked the goal and it’s about scoring goals. We knew before the start of the tie what we were going to do, how we were going to work on it, and it almost came out perfectly. In the end, you are always criticized, but we’re leaving proud. Our people are proud. We wanted to go through, but obviously it couldn’t be,” he said.

He also spoke of the time wasters of the City. “Those who give your opinion are you. Many times they call us out if we’re wasting time, if we’re anti-football… Today you can already give your opinion about what has been seen on the pitch”, Koke continued, who previously pointed out to ‘Movistar’ that when you’re “pressing, you’re having chances”, your rivals threw themselves “on the ground, they lose time, let’s see what people think today”.
