Atletico Madrid wants to destroy last week's 2-1 defeat when they organize Real Madrid in the second stage of their Champions League round of 16 draw. They are supported by tens of thousands of their supporters in the Metropolitano, and it promises to be a spectacular opportunity.
The big news for the game was the single Comfort of Kylian Mbappe, so that he was labeled as doubtful. Since then, however, he has been included in the MatchDay team of Real Madrid, and for Atleti President Enrique Cerezo this is not necessarily a bad thing, according to MD.
“I don't have the least idea, but if he is a starter, even better for the football spectacle that we want to see. I think it plays better for us (that Mbappe is available) because the sporty spectacle that we will see tonight will be bigger. “
Cerezo also responded to comments from Diego Simeone in his press conference for the competition that he believes that Carlo Ancelotti is a better manager than he is.
“Ancelotti is undoubtedly a great coach. He has won many titles, he is a wonderful coach and he has coached a wonderful team. And we're going to try to beat Ancelotti and his team tonight. I think they are both great coaches, one with more years than the other, but I think they are both wonderful coaches. That is probably why they are in two great teams. “
Cerezo is also hopeful that the supporters of Atleti will make a big difference in the Metropolitano on Wednesday.
“Well, the fans, you know that UEFA congratulated us in the last competition and this year I think the behavior of the two fans should be beautiful and exemplary. And we call on that it is. We go to a football match, a great football match and the one who happens will have to be congratulations. “
