D.Simeone: "Atletico" will not change its aggressive playing style

Madrid's "Atletico" victory master coach Diego Simeone said that the "Rojiblancos" team does not intend to change their style of play and promises to continue playing aggressively.

Spanish champions often receive criticism for their style of play. "Atletico" plays rough and aggressively, but D. Simeone asserts that this style of play helps them win and is the most important thing.

"We don't know how to play differently," said the Argentine. "We are a strong team and we do not intend to change our style of play."

"Every team has its own style of play and tries to win in different ways. My goal coming here was to restore the old "Atletico", which was physically strong," said the strategist.

Today, D. Simeone faces another task - to defeat the fierce Madrid "Real" club in the Madrid derby. The 44-year-old specialist does not expect an easy match, but promises a battle.

"We know how great the 'Real' team is, with great players and a great coach. We do not think about their injuries, we only think about a positive result. Our desire in these matches is only one - to win," added D. Simeone.

It is worth mentioning that this season, the Madrid teams met each other five times, and not once was Carlo Ancelotti's coached team able to achieve a victory.
