Simeone: Atletico has not given up on the championship yet
Diego Simeone, head coach of Madrid's Atletico football team, is not rushing to draw conclusions after a poor start in the Spanish championship. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The team is currently in 17th place in the competition table and has only gathered two points after three rounds. The leaders of the competition, Real and Athletic Bilbao, each have nine points.
According to Simeone, last season they were ten points behind Barcelona but had taken first place by December. The current results are subject to criticism due to the low points collected, but the main task is to find their game and improve.
He emphasized that he does not want to justify the results, but the team's play is not that bad. Simeone also stated that he prefers winning even when playing poorly.
On September 13, Atletico will host Villarreal.
