“Winning at the Camp Nou? There is always a first time”

Diego Pablo Simeone addressed the press in the preview of the match between Atlético against Barcelona at the Camp Nou. The rojiblanco team is leading with four days to go, but to continue depending on itself they will have to win in the Blaugrana fiefdom.

Can it be a decisive game for the league title?

They have known me for quite some time and I focus on what is coming tomorrow. They have won many points in a row, they come with a good game, they have rearranged what happened in the first round with a great job and we will try to take the game where it suits us best.

Above will be Llorente and Suárez.

Their season speaks for itself. They have been doing a fantastic season, a player like Luis claiming everything that was expected of him and Llorente doing one of the best years of his career.

Does it benefit them that Koeman is not on the bench?

Not.

Will you accompany Suárez with a player who is a midfielder in defense?

We have been playing this season with a fairly continuous idea, sometimes expressed in a better way and others in a worse way and we will not vary much from what we have been doing. Imagine the best we have done and there we will try to get closer.

What are the keys for LaLiga?

The mental.

Do you see similarities with the title they won at the Camp Nou?

I have to be brief in my answer, but none. Then a championship was decided where one winner was the champion and another was worth two results, the victory and the draw. Now there are a lot of points left so honestly none.

Barcelona thinks that it depends on itself in the League.

We go game by game and face the one that comes with enthusiasm, humility and the tranquility that we transmit.

There is a great duel in goal.

Always talking about the best goalkeepers they are the same. Oblak has been doing several seasons at a very high level, probably the best in the world and Ter Stegen is competing among the best and this season he has also been at a high level.

He needs to win at the Camp Nou.

There is always a first time in life for everything. Forever.

How do you see Luis Suárez?

Not to speak only of Luis, the whole group is enthusiastic, enthusiastic and I completely trust the team I have for the remainder of the League.
