Luis Suárez was again decisive for Atlético de Madrid. His header goal – together with Oblak's subsequent save on the penalty – served to give his team the victory as so many times. Now The League has a stoppage and he will not go with Uruguay, that has no matches. A small respite for the gunman heading into the final stretch of the season. In addition, he has participated in the Twitch from the journalist Gerard Romero to comment on his personal situation, that of Atleti, how he sees Barça …
The scorer also received the congratulations of ex-teammates like Lugano, Heitinga and Sergi Roberto and his partner in attack Marcos Llorente, I've given him a few this season and he joked with him: “There are a lot of goals, even if you count those from training …”
You have connected very well with Marcos Llorente.
I am surprised that he has not combed (when watching the congratulatory video), I tell him to comb his hair and groom himself a bit, but keep up with his part influencer, as they say in the locker room. He is in a great moment, the conditions are too much for him. He helps the team a lot, he has a lot of merit and he is recognized with the call of the National Team. It is making a difference, the group notices it and it is the line that we all want.
Another decisive goal from Luis Suárez …
You give a lot of credit to the goal, because you always think about victory. Then yes, the importance of Oblak's penalty, which has more merit, and seeing the congratulations that one receives, one values it much more, the importance of reaching that number of goals.
“Marcos Llorente has enormous conditions, he is making a difference and the group notices it …”
Yesterday Oblak saves you from the League getting on fire …
For something it is what it is, in recent years worldwide. What generates for the rival striker that is so good. After so many years without stopping penalties, yesterday he did it and helped the team and reinforces it a lot. You should feel very confident. If it wasn't for him and his stop, we wouldn't have gotten all three points.
And you scored after the heat on Wednesday in London …
I am a very self critical player. When things don't go well for me, I warm up to myself many times and I want to reverse the situation and play as soon as possible. It was a complicated elimination, which you do not expect, and they take time to heal, but knowing that after three days there is another game and, as we want to continue at the top, we have to take out that rebellious part to win the game.
Has his good performance at Atlético surprised you?
I had the luck and the decision to change to a team from the same league and that has a certain benefit, I didn't need more than to know the teammates, the team, but in the game it didn't change me too much. One is passionate when it comes to playing, it does not change with one or another shirt. I'm happy with how things are going for me to be helping the team to be on top.
What a pity that the Metropolitan is not open …
One misses all the atmosphere and the support of the people for what it generates on the field. You lose that without an audience, but health is first, you have to take care of yourself, let it happen as soon as possible and that we can enjoy the atmosphere and the Atleti fans, who I have experienced as a visitor and I want to feel them on my side. In Barcelona I know that they love me and they know the affection I have for them, the club has given me a lot.
Did you see the 1-6 of Barça?
Yes, a great game, it was spectacular. When a team is in positive dynamics and has the best in the world, it shows. When you see that the rival suffers everywhere on the court, you realize that they were going to win. When you admire football, you watch that game, how they have fun …
Do you watch Barça games? Are you connected to Messi?
Yes, because I like to watch football and I have friends there. I have admiration for the team I defended and I will be grateful. I talk to Messi almost daily, but we talk about many things and sometimes about matches, but also about personal things.
Have you bet with Messi on who will win the top scorer?
We haven't talked about it. Depending on how we go we could negotiate.
Do you spin all the goals?
I remember everyone, huh? One that I made Mallorca high heels, they said it was lucky, but no. One that I did at Betis was also very big. I have done some with Uruguay which has been very good. In Liverpool one from the middle of the field against Newcastle, which I receive from José Enrique and finish quickly, against Madrid one that I piqued when I did hat-trick, And the one I did with Atlético, it's not easy to define that way… I've also scored a few free-kicks.
Who is the one who has given you the most goals?
We share a lot between Leo and me. Many goals were thanks to them, Ney, Sergi Roberto, Alba … many have been from pushing her.
“Haaland is one of the best nines in the world, it will mark an era”
Do you remember who the first dedication was for?
Sofi (his wife) told him last night while we read the congratulations to “You were in the first one, when I was 18 years old.” You think about everything that has happened since then …
By the way, Mbappé or Haaland?
Haaland is a great player, he is at a spectacular level. It has an admirable physical power. It is one of the best 9 in the world and will mark an era. They are different. I am a nine, so I prefer the nine scorer, the one who makes a difference. I'm going around Halland a little bit, but Mbappé is at a very high level.
