Diego Pablo Simeone appeared before the media to assess the Atlético match against Botafogo and his passage through the Club World Cup.
In the end the last minutes against PSG were key. How do you keep the elimination?: “We were in a very good group with the champion of the Libertadores and the Champions. They favored us.
It seems that the season has been long: “We knew in advance that it was a very beautiful and exciting tournament, but the Europeans are reached at the end of the season and the South Americans in the Plenary. The first game did not like the result because we were not compact. In Seattle we showed better face in the first half and today we play as we usually, intense, in search, goal situations, situations that did not favor and we did not have the goddess fortune to make a goal. PGS and Botafogo, but we made the same points as the champion of the Libertadores and the Champions League and we stay out.
Everything has left Cruz in Atlético: “I do not share it. It is a great opportunity we have to continue evolving, to be clear about what we need,”
What feelings do you have?: “I go with the sadness of having been eliminated. The goal was to continue and we could not achieve it, we did six points, from three games we won two, we competed from less to more and this time we had to be left out because They had more illusion of what we did “
It seems that it could be Correa's last game: “There is some possibility for what is transmitted. We have a very frontal and clear connection and talks, he knows what I love him, he gave us a lot from his commitment to the team when he had to play and not play. We wish him the best, we love him very much and if he has to leave I have no doubt that whoever fiche will be done with an extraordinary player,”
Are you leaving with a reproach?: “It is clear that we could not manage the end of the match against the PSG or have the forcefulness that this tournament asks for. If you do not have it, defensive and offensive, you leave. Today we had a good defensive performance and this time he did not want to enter”
