MADRID, 24 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The coach of Atlético de Madrid, Diego Pablo Simeone, regretted the lack of forcefulness in both areas this Saturday in the draw (2-2) against Almería, extending a bad dynamic away from home for which he took responsibility, although happy with his players.
“The game was quite clear. We started very well, we had Barrios’ play that he couldn’t control and stayed one-on-one with the goalkeeper, the one from Memphis. We were not forceful in those plays that we had to lead the game, we were weak in the two goals they scored against us,” he said at a press conference.
“We did not have the solidity that this type of actions requires. Just about the third that they kick against us is also a goal. We could not be forceful in either of the two facets. In attack we had goal situations in the second half, with the 2-2 “, Riquelme’s, Morata’s twice. We need to improve the defensive aspect and continue insisting on having chances. The goal will come,” he added.
On the other hand, ‘Cholo’ pointed out that he liked his team but pointed out again to that lack of forcefulness. “We had the clearest situations. I liked the energy with which the team played. Always searching. I like the intention they had, we lacked forcefulness in the defensive and offensive parts at the end,” he stated.
“The coach prepares the away games poorly. There are a lot of games, there are a lot of lost points and the responsibility is mine. What I demand of them, I know they have it, I’m going to get it from them,” he concluded, about the bad numbers this season away from home. home.
