Madrid's "Atletico" team started the 16th round of the Spanish "La Liga" championship with another draw.
The "Atletico" team, separated from "Villarreal" without goals, remained in sixth place. In the last ten matches, the team from the Spanish capital has achieved only two victories in the country's championships, experiencing a real crisis in attack.
In 16 matches, "Atletico" has scored only 16 goals - the seventh worst result in the entire league. "Atletico" has never had such poor results in attack in its entire history in the country's highest league.
After the match, Diego Simeone said that the team is not playing poorly - simply the players have lost confidence in themselves.
"It is not normal not to score when you create so many opportunities. After all that, nervousness emerges," the coach said. "The more you get nervous, the less chances you have to score a goal."
"When the feeling of nervousness disappears, peace and accuracy will come, then the players will show what they are truly capable of. Before the 'Villarreal' game, we created great opportunities - moments by Felix and Lodi," added D. Simeone.
