From the team’s concentration in Los Ángeles de San Rafael prior to the final, the forward from Asturias shared a couple of minutes with the fans who sent their questions through Facebook.
Juanfran Torres highlighted at the press conference that there are no favourites in the final, and that the team’s and the fans’ desire to win the first European Cup is enormous.
The Uruguayan defence, along with Raúl García, Mario Suárez and Filipe Luis appeared in the mixed area to analyse Lisbon’s final.
Diego Pablo Simeone commented at the media open day before the Champions final that winning helps and that his players deserved to celebrate the League. “It’s easier after winning”, he said.
Atlético de Madrid, along with thousands of fans, celebrated the tenth League in the Club's history. Neptuno was a party full of fans, mainly children and young people, who didn’t stop cheering and chanting to the red and white heroes.
Diego Godín scored the tying goal at Camp Nou that won the League title to an Atlético de Madrid that was the fair champion, 18 years later.
Diego Pablo Simeone, Atlético’s coach, on a statement made to Canal Plus after the game, spoke about what this League title means and what the team had to suffer since the beginning.
Simeone’s team won the League after an epic fixture at the Camp Nou. The Atléticos overcame the injuries of Diego Costa and Arda in the first half with teamwork and sacrifice.
The Atletico players retired injured in the first half after suffering a muscle injury in Diego’s case and an iliac crest trauma in Arda Turan’s.
Simeone has decided to move all of the team to Barcelona. After the last training, Atlético’s coach provided the squad list, and as he’s done before with important trips this season, everybody goes.
