“Newcastle United” defender Kieran Trippier recalled his career period in Spain.
At that time, the Englishman represented the Madrid team “Atletico” and had to play against the leader of “Barcelona” Lionel Messi.
According to the 32-year-old footballer, “Atletico” coach Diego Simeone did not give him much advice.
“It's funny, because he was a coach and both of them - Argentinians.
Everything Diego could say before our match preparation was a command to pray.
It was said that you still wouldn't do anything and couldn't hold him, because L. Messi is unique”, – said K. Trippier.
