SIMEONE TAKES THE BEST OVER XABI
In a duel between two of the most famous coaches in European football, Diego Simeone had the advantage over Xabi Alonso. And the Spanish coach, in charge of the visiting team, was decisive in the loss of the result.
When they were winning the match and had an extra player, they took off full-back Mukiele and put in center forward Patrik Schick, changing the tactical scheme and leaving the team less defensively protected. With great commitment and organization, the Spanish team managed to turn the game around.
