"Simeone is one of the best coaches in the world. He knows football very well and the philosophy of Atletico Madrid Football Club very well. He knows how to get to the final. He was very characterful when he was a player, and the same is true after he became a coach. He has everything a successful coach needs to have. His biggest advantage is that he knows his players very well."

——Zidane commented on Simeone.

The 2017/2018 season is coming to an end. Atletico Madrid is temporarily 3 points ahead of its city rival Real Madrid and ranks second in the La Liga standings behind Barcelona.

If Atletico Madrid maintains their usual style of play, there is no doubt that they will lock in the second place in the league.

The championship journey of the 2013/2014 season is still vivid in our memory. Atletico Madrid, led by Diego Simeone, was unstoppable in the La Liga, defeated strong opponents and won the first place; and won the Spanish Super Cup with a score of 1-0 against Real Madrid on August 23, 2014.

That Atletico Madrid team with Villa, Diego Costa, Gabi, Koke, Godin, Juanfran and Courtois, together with their head coach, attracted widespread attention throughout Europe.

But people did not expect that after that, until 2018, Atletico Madrid would not be able to get even one championship trophy.

In the 2013/2014 Champions League final, it was regrettable that Atletico Madrid was equalized by the opponent at the last moment and finally lost in overtime.

In the 2014/2015 season, it ranked third in the league.

In the 2015/2016 season, the team ranked third in the league. That year, Simeone led Atletico Madrid to the Champions League final for the second time in three years. The opponent in the final was still Real Madrid. After 120 minutes of fierce battle, Atletico Madrid lost 3-5 in the penalty shootout, and once again missed the opportunity to reach the top of Europe.

In the 2016/2017 season, the team ranked third in the league; in the same year, Atletico Madrid fought to the semi-finals in the Champions League, but things did not go as planned.

It was Real Madrid again. Real Madrid won 3-0 in the first round and Atletico Madrid won 2-1 in the second round, but still lost to the opponent in the total score and was eliminated. Real Madrid won the championship of that tournament.

After countless disappointments, Atletico Madrid stood here.

In the 2017/2018 season, Atletico Madrid was in Group C of the Champions League, where they were in the same group as Chelsea, Roma and Qarabagh from the Azerbaijan Super League, but they ended up with 1 win, 4 draws and 1 loss, with the only victory coming against Qarabagh.

In the entire group stage, they only scored five goals.

They finished third in the group and fell into the Europa League.

Many people criticized the rule that the Champions League teams that failed to qualify from the group would fall into the Europa League and continue to play, and they believed that this was unfair to the Europa League teams themselves.

But it is undeniable that such a rule gave those Champions League teams that did not perform well a chance to start over.

They beat Lokomotiv Moscow 8-1 in two rounds and beat Sporting CP 2-1 to advance to the semi-finals.

In the first round against Arsenal, both sides attacked and defended each other, and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. In the second round at the Civitas Metropolitano Stadium, Atletico Madrid controlled the game, with 16 shots and 6 shots on target for a valuable score of 1-0, and finally advanced to the final 2-1.

Arsenal is facing difficulties at this time. Arsenal, who is destined to miss the European Cup, now generally lacks fighting spirit in the team, and Wenger has also come to the last season of his career at Arsenal.

The professor's farewell was accompanied by thorns.

Until the 85th minute of the second round, Arsenal only needed to score a goal to drag the game into overtime, but the players seemed to have completely lost the desire to attack and just slowly passed the ball in the backcourt.

Facts have proved that when two sides meet on a narrow road, the brave will win.

Atletico Madrid once again stood on the stage of the final.

Although it has changed from the Champions League to the Europa League.

From the Champions League to the Europa League, Atletico Madrid has been smooth sailing all the way, with basically no setbacks. Although it cannot be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack, it can at least be said to be leading in strength.

Simeone has injected unique blood into Atletico Madrid.

When he was a player, Simeone was "a man who can play with knives between his teeth." After becoming the head coach, Simeone emphasized the mostIt is the spirit of concentration, struggle and perseverance.

After becoming the head coach of Atletico Madrid Football Club, Simeone instilled his characteristics as a player into the team. He brought diligence, strong discipline, iron blood, and an extremely eager spirit of victory to Atletico Madrid.

Before taking over Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid was a team that focused on technical flow, but after Simeone took over, the team changed its previous style. The team emphasized defense, interception, and improved the quality of counterattacks.

Some people commented that Atletico Madrid has become "rough", but it is such a "rough" team that relies on pragmatic defensive counterattacks to stand in a place where their predecessors have not been able to reach for a long time.

Griezmann and Diego Costa's striker combination is obviously a perfect partner. Koke on the left and Correa on the right echo each other, and Gabi and Saul in the middle form a solid midfield.

In the back line, Lucas Hernandez's value has soared to 70 million euros, while Godin in the middle is at the peak of his career and can be said to be one of the best central defenders in the world.

After sending Courtois away, Oblak, who transferred from Benfica, made a high-level defense in front of the goal. More importantly, he is a typical example of a "ball-out goalkeeper".

It is not surprising that such a lineup of players can make it to the final.

The potential of the Wolves' main young lineup is of course infinite, but people look at the group of children in the Wolves and the group of strong and muscular rough men in Atletico Madrid, and they probably still think that Atletico Madrid is better.

Although Simeone answered his son's words at the dinner table without hesitation that he had sufficient confidence in the final; but Simeone did not feel "sure of victory" at all for the team he was about to face.

When collecting information about the Wolves, their head coach Wei Le entered Simeone's field of vision countless times.

At first, when he heard that there was a head coach in his twenties coaching the English Championship, he was just curious about when that person would be dismissed. But when the character he once looked down on became his direct opponent and stood in front of him, he was really shocked.

What Wolves showed on the field was much more shocking than just looking at the score.

If Simeone were asked to evaluate Wolves, he would summarize it in one word, that is, "balance".

Balanced offense and defense, Wolves rarely have a scene of being counterattacked after a large-scale pressure; the left and right sides are also very balanced, without obvious distinction between strong and weak sides; in terms of team style, they also find a balance between rough and fine.

Maybe Wolves' football is not the most beautiful one, but it must be the most orderly one.

Every player knows what he wants to do on the field, which is the most surprising.

Simeone even thinks that Wolves will be a more difficult opponent than Arsenal.
