Atletico look to complete Simeone miracle

If there was any remaining doubt about the immense faith Atletico Madrid have in their manager, Tiago immediately removed it. The former Chelsea midfielder was asked to explain the effect of Diego Simeone.

At first, with his manager sat to his right, he seemed a little reticent. He ended up offering the highest possible praise.

“It’s difficult to speak with him here but I think, for us, for all the club, he’s like a God for us.”
