Quotes
“I think in the first half, we had a very good first half," Atletico manager Diego Simeone said after his side's draw with Real Madrid.
"We weren’t as clinical in the final metres to take advantage of the chances that we had. We could have taken those better. In the second half, it started early with their goal, they played more intensely in the second half.
"After 20 minutes or so, we had more important chances, Julián (Alvarez), (Marcos) Llorente twice, and in the end, it ended with a draw where both teams probably feel that we could have taken more.”

Atletico emerged as 1-0 winners over Celta in their last meeting in La Liga with the match taking place at Estadio Abanca-Balaídos on 26 September.
