Simeone keeps hope in contention at Espanyol

Atletico Madrid does not resisted the force of Real Madrid in this Sunday’s derby. The result was bad, but coach Diego Simeone prefers to keep his hopes up in the Spanish Championship.

“Too many games are missing. Madrid get a lot of points, it’s true, but they know what the Spanish League is like. It’s complicated,” commented the coach.

The result leaves Simeone’s team 13 points behind Real Madrid in the dispute for the leadership of Espanyol. Thus, Simone knows that she needs patience to seek recovery and dream of a sprint.

“We cannot allow ourselves to think beyond the game against Betis, the next one. We cannot think of anything else,” said the Atlético de Madrid commander
