"Atletico" gave "Real" the opportunity due to pressure

The director of the Madrid "Atletiko" football club, Miguel Angel Gil, shared his thoughts on the results of the last season for the club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, the most significant event of the season was being eliminated from the UEFA Champions League. Gil emphasized that "Atletiko" lost to the "Real" team due to a penalty in that match.

This decision was controversially made by the referee, and the penalty was executed by Julian Alvarez. In his interview, Gil also noted that the team played well before the match against "Real".

He stated that problems arose in the team right before this controversial match. In particular, the team did not perform well in the game against "Getafe" either.

The director explained this situation by the increased pressure and nervousness among the players. The new season for Madrid's "Atletiko" club will start in the Spanish championship on August 17.

On that day, the club will face the "Espanyol" team. The club's leader stated that the team is seriously preparing for the upcoming matches.
