The director of Madrid's “Atletiko” club, Miguel Angel Gil, emphasized that he takes pride in the team's participation in the Club World Cup. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
It is known that this tournament took place in June, and London’s “Chelsea” club emerged as the winner. “Atletiko” was unable to advance from the group stage of the competition.
According to Miguel Angel Gil, “Atletiko” needed to perform better than “Barcelona” in European competitions over the last four years to participate in the World Cup. He noted that achieving this goal was not easy.
Therefore, the club's participation in the tournament is a source of pride for the club's management and fans. The new season of the Spanish championship for Madrid's “Atletiko” club will begin on August 17.
On that day, the team will face “Espanyol” club. The club's management and players have stated that they will strive for high results in the upcoming season as well.
