Colea the defeat of Atlético against Elche. One of the news in training this Wednesday happened at the end of it. The footballers finished exercising and Simeone gathered them all in a circle and began to address them. It was a short talk, it didn’t last five minutes, but it was intense, as the Argentine coach was seen to gesticulate a lot. The defeat against the Elche team, and, above all, the way it happened has not been liked at all by Atlético and Cholo wanted to talk to his footballers.
Atlético has offered a very good image after the World Cup, with good results, attractive football and goals. And that led to Atlético reaching second position. But in Elche a very different Atlético was seen, without intensity, without desire, especially in the first half, and reminded the one before the World Cup. El Cholo already showed his discontent in the statements after the meeting.
For Atlético, finishing second is a challenge and now the rojiblanco team once again depends on Real Madrid. There are four games left and the coaching staff does not want the image of last Sunday to be repeated. The next match will be at the Cívitas Metropolitano, it will be held on Children’s Day, the stadium will be full and the team must show an intensity and attitude different from the one shown against Elche.
