The Athletic fell on Sunday against Athletic, with what his chances of winning the league title they have seen reduced. Simeone has been criticized for the way Atlético approached the match in Bilbao: playing for the championship, the Athletic was more aggressive Y better than the madrileños in the first half. After the break Atlético was better. And when he achieved the most complicated thing, to tie the clash, he returned to put behind again on the scoreboard, this time in a set piece.

Own trainer from Atlético he blamed himself for what happened in the first half against Athletic. It is not the first time that the Madrid team throws the first forty-five minutes, although then reacts after the break. It's something that can't afford the leader in the five games that remain to finalize the championship.

The cholo, however, it has already lived some difficult moments at Atlético. In the Madrid entity they know that the great goal this covered, stay in positions of Champions, and the team continues to depend on itself to win the title.

Elche, Elche and Elche. There's no more.
