This Monday, Diego Simeone, coach of Atlético de Madrid, gave a press conference prior to the clash with Liverpool, in the Champions League. The Argentine coach analyzed the rival and said he expects a “very intense” team.
“It’s a pleasure to see Liverpool play. He presses high, plays on short lines, is forceful, is not afraid to play with spaces in the back, has fast players. which is so important for a team as offensive as Liverpool. I don’t expect anything else, a very intense team, with very good players, which will complicate us a lot,” he said.
“We have to equalize the intensity of the game and then generate what we will look for within the match,” added Simeone.
