Simeone: "The options on the bench? Very good" | OneFootball

Simeone analyzed the draw against Levante, on an afternoon when, with barely any players on the bench, the young Jano Monserrate made his debut with Atlético.

STATUS OF SØRLOTH AND BARRIOS

"The doctor will provide a better update, so I don’t get ahead of myself and make a mistake. Let’s hope the doctor and the club inform us about both of them."

MATCH ANALYSIS

"The team played a good first half again, controlling the game and we managed to score a goal. They defended quite well, very organized, working hard, and the match couldn’t be broken open. In the second half, you could see the fatigue from playing every three days; it wasn’t the same as the first half, it was more even, with chances for both them and us, but without any real clarity from either team."

WHAT WAS MISSING?

"We lacked more play in the second half, that’s why we had fewer chances to get close to scoring."

WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH SIMEONE’S MIND?

"No, I was thinking about the match. What changes and moves I could make. I was evaluating and thinking about what to do in the second half."

BENCH ALTERNATIVES

"Very good, everything was very good."
