After defeating PSV yesterday, not only are we still topping the group, but we’re safely into the round of 16. The victory was a bit easy but we’ll take it.
This means that all four La Liga teams are through, and Spain will be represented proudly in the Champions League.
The PSV match can be considered “meh”. [...]

A day without fans.
Un dia sin aficionados.
Een dag zonder fans.
It sucks in any language that you put it. The Powers That Be didn’t allow the UEFA to let us slide with our punishment and the “no fans allowed” punishment is something that some Italian teams are very used to.
75 people will be allowed into the [...]
The Lingering Annoyance of the Last-Minute Penalty
By: Al | No Comments
Something that isn’t new to us *cough* derby *cough* *cough* Liverpool *cough*. The match against Numancia was one that we had in the bag, until another one of those godawful penalties that referees simply LOVE to give against Atlético Madrid ended up shutting us down once it was scored, ending the match in a 1-1 [...]
Behind Closed Doors
By: Al | 2 Comments
After what seemed like ages of complaining, the slamming of fists and crying to mommies from the Atlético honchos, the PSV match next week is officially going to be played behind closed doors. Atlético appealed UEFA’s decision and sent two lawyers, two management members, and Assuncao and Sinama-Pongolle to the Court of Arbitration of Sport [...]

By: Al | No Comments
Atlético played the kind of match that they played at the beginning of the season with another 4-0 blowout (plus that one easy Depor goal scored at the end). Such a comfortable win is something that the team is able to achieve much more often. Just imagine: playing against Osasuna like this a week ago [...]

Atlético Madrid vs. Deportivo de La Coruña
Same old shenanigans in the world of Atlético. Winning a game, then losing/tying the next one, then winning, then so on and so forth. The expectations given to us from such a successful last season and a great start to this season are too much for us to be [...]

Osasuna 0 – Atlético Madrid 0
I’ll be damned if our players aren’t holding their heads down in shame. It seemed like they learned their lesson from losing against Sevilla, Barcelona, and Real Madrid. The lucky draws against Villarreal and Liverpool (twice) seemed like Atletico had the ability to keep theirselves alive. And how did they [...]

Osasuna vs. Atlético Madrid
We travel to Pamplona to face last-place Osasuna tomorrow. We’re slowly picking ourselves up and want to gain momentum in La Liga as soon as possible. Our mid-week performance against Liverpool was impressive (and maybe a bit lucky, for both teams) and now that we have this monster of a match out [...]

Liverpool 1 – Atlético Madrid 1
Steven Gerrard’s cheesy grin has never pissed me off more.
Everyone pretty much knows what happened yesterday. Stevie G threw himself at Pernia and was allowed a penalty for it. I’m not even going to complain about the ref. It’s just a shame how luck is never on our side [...]

Liverpool vs. Atlético Madrid
Things are finally rolling and we’re more than ready to take on Liverpool. We’re getting things back on track with two consecutive wins, one in the Copa and one in the league against Mallorca last weekend. Our current objective is to qualify to the next round of the Champions League, and we’re [...]
