The Champions League returns to the Calderón
The premier club competition returns to our stadium five months later and it does so with a big game against Bayern. Precisely, the German team was the last team to play at the Calderón in the 15/16 season and will be the first to do so this year.
The Vicente Calderon is ready to live another great night of the Champions League. The premier club competition returns to our stadium and will do so with a really big game between Atlético de Madrid and Bayern, corresponding to the second week of the group stage.
The teams of Simeone and Ancelotti lead group D of the Champions League with three points each after they beat the Russian Rostov (5-0) in the first week and we defeated PSV at the Philips Stadion (0-1), with a great goal from Saúl.
Simeone has called 18 players for this match. The Argentinian manager said in press conference: “They have a very competitive team.” For his part, Ancelotti said: “It’s always complicated to play against Atlético.”
Griezmann and Lewandowski arrive as the top scorers of the two teams with five and nine goals each.
