“It is very difficult to win Atlético de Madrid”
Leo Baptistao said that the goal is to try to obtain a positive result against Atlético de Madrid
Leo Baptistao is one of the players that used to play for Atlético de Madrid. The Brazilian said that “it is like any orher match. Therefore, they always treat me very well”. “When I play against Atlético de Madrid they always ask me the same question. I face the match with thrill, as any other match and without bad feelings because I only took good things. I was happy there and they always treat me well”, he said.
The striker said that “Espanyol is in a very good streak of results. We know that it is very difficult to be seven matches without losing, but this Saturday it is complicated because we know that playing and winning there is very difficult. It is going to be a very tactic game, to the limit and the first one who makes a mistake can lose the match. There will be a lot of tension since the beginning, but we have to try to be ambitious to win the three points”. The striker said that “it is very difficult to win in the Calderón. We have to work and try to take advantage of any mistake they do”.
“Atlético de Madrid is one of the best teams in the world. Our goal is to try to win to continue growing as a team and continue with this dynamic. It is a very organised team, difficult to play against and that has progressed in the recent years”, he said.
