| Simeone: "We could have wrapped it up, but we didn’t"
| The Argentine rued the missed chances
|
The point picked up in the Benito Villamarin wasn’t enough. After dominating much of the game, Atletico return to the capital of Spain with a point, and thanks for the goal on the final whistle from Falcao. Simeone, in the press conference after the game, spoke with common sense."We could have wrapped it up (the game) but we didn’t...and that happens in football...in the end we did not win."
The Argentine coach summarised events "I do not think the game was weird or crazy, but Atletico played very well and created clear chances".
Still, Simeone praised the attitude of his side in the final minutes, despite the blow which they suffered with the two goals conceded just before the end “The spirit this squad has was shown when we came back from 1-2 with just 3 minutes to go.That speaks highly of the players," he said.
