In the 9th round of La Liga, Alvarez scored early, and Sucic equalized, eventually ending in a 1-1 draw between Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad away from home, extending their winless streak in all competitions to three matches. After the game, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone gave an interview to the media.
Simeone said: “This was similar to our game against Athletic Bilbao, where we won that time, but drew this time. The team found opportunities to score, and our defense was good, it was a collective effort, and we only allowed one set-piece opportunity for the opponent. We need to counterattack better when there is space, which they limited us well on this point.”
“I think the team is very strong and organized defensively, able to adjust according to the needs of the game. We need to improve the efficiency of our transitions from defense to attack because we have the ability to do so, which will help us make full use of our fast and technically skilled players.”
“It’s good to maintain our unbeaten record in the league, which shows we are doing well, and we are constantly growing from defense to attack.”
“Lenglet and Galan both performed well. Lenglet is very dedicated and had a good performance today. Galan worked hard defending Kubo, although not as expected in attack. This is a good opportunity for them to showcase themselves and prepare for the future.”
