Atletico Madrid coach, Diego Simeone, has conceded that Barcelona were the better side after his team’s LaLiga defeat.
Simeone acknowledged that Atletico fell short and must respond to the loss against the Blaugrana.
Fermín López’s brace gave Hansi Flick’s side the victory against Atletico at Metropolitano as Giuliano Simeone’s goal was not enough.
Speaking at his post-match interview, Simeone said, “I will take away an extraordinary performance from the players; I have no complaints. We put the opposition under pressure in an area where they weren’t comfortable.
