The head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, commented on the team's exit from the European Cup. In the match of the 6th round of the Champions League group stage, Matratsniki lost to Porto (1:2).
"It was obvious that Porto did better for us. They took the right positions and realized their moments. We deserved to be relegated from the Champions League and European Cups.
Last place in the group is what we deserve. Now we have another reality - La Liga and the Copa del Rey. There is no doubt that we will make it. I have full confidence in my players," Simeone was quoted as saying by AS.
