It’s time to celebrate for Atletico Madrid who is all set to face their city rival Real Madrid in the final of Champions League 2014 and team coach is applauding each and every team member, especially their mothers who nourished their children with a winning attitude. Actually, soccer is no less than a war where level of confidence plays an important role and if we look at the whole European journey of Diego Simeone’s side they have ever been a fighter. Take an example of semifinal game with league club Chelsea, particularly the moment when they were trailing by one goal on the cart, no one had then imagined that they can win this game looking at the previous games of José Mourinho’s side, but they stunned every assumption about the game and came from the back to coup one of the biggest feats on their European campaign. Even if we look at the La Liga, they are all set to face either Barcelona or Real Madrid in the final, which shows, they have actually proved their strength in front of the world.
Atletico boss Diego is not shying to thank mothers of all the teammates who help them grow like a winner and that is why they are ruling both in European as well domestic fronts. Calling their semifinal win as the biggest achievement off late, since they were facing one of the rock-hard defenses in contemporary soccer, 44-year-old Argentinean said, “The players took control of the pitch against a powerful team, with a lot of history in the Champions League, and that makes me very pleased. We have to be grateful for their effort because without them we could not have experienced what we are.”
Actually, now, it’s an all Madrid final in the UEFA event and fans are highly excited to see both of their home teams fighting to win one of the most prestigious titles. Calling player’s mothers the biggest source of motivation, Diego said, “I want to thank the mothers of these players because they gave birth to them with balls this big. The reaction of the team will stick in people’s memories.”
Reacting over the loss of semifinal, Chelsea manager José Mourinho said, CL final has lost its interest to a great extent since their if no outsider who is combating for the crown. He added, “Those who have experienced these things know that there are no favourites in a final. It is going to be a very balanced match.”
