DIEGO Simeone has admitted Atletico Madrid struggled to live with Celtic in the first half of their Champions League encounter at Parkhead.
DIEGO Simeone tonight admitted that his Atletico Madrid players had struggled to live with Celtic in the first half of their Champions League encounter at Parkhead this evening and raved about the Glasgow club’s slick attacking play.
The visitors levelled at a spot kick after Greg Taylor had tripped Nahuel Molina inside his own area – Antoine Griezmann saw his penalty saved by Joe Hart but the French striker netted the rebound. “As I expected, they started the game really well, as they did against Feyenoord and Lazio,” he said. “We really struggled to contain them and their first attack resulted in a goal. In the first half we didn’t play the way I wanted us to.
