Simeone: “How did we get to the derby? As always, by bus”
Atlético Madrid is already preparing for a clash of giants with Real Madrid
Atlético Madrid will visit the Santiago Bernabéu with high morale to face Real Madrid in the next round of LaLiga . After beating Getafe in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey on Tuesday, Diego Simeone has already set his sights on the Madrid derby… with plenty of irony thrown in.
Speaking at the press conference, a journalist asked the Colchonero coach how his team would get to the Santiago Bernabéu. Simenone responded succinctly, and with good humor: «We will arrive at the derby at the Bernabéu the same way we always do, by bus.»
In addition to always being a heated encounter between Madrid’s two biggest clubs, this game takes on even greater importance because Real lead the league with just one point more than Atlético. The meeting is scheduled for next Saturday, at 8:00 pm.
