Simeone: Calm heads, patience and hard work will bring results | OneFootball

Simeone analyzed the draw of Atlético Madrid, which after the 1-1 against Elche, leaves the team with one point out of a possible six in La Liga.

FEELINGS AFTER THE DRAW

"Tough. We wanted to win. We deserved to win but the opposing team defended very well. The goalkeeper had two very good actions, one with Sorloth and another with Marcos. We made a mistake in their goal. The team attacked all the match but we were left with a bad taste. At the end of the match with them more sunk it was more difficult".

LOSING FIVE POINTS

"We have one point. We have two matches in which I hold on to the fact that the team is improving. We have young people and we have to make them grow. I think there was improvement from the Espanyol match to today. It is clear that the result, which is what matters to us all, is not there. We have to be patient and keep looking for the ways of today's match. When the decisiveness appears we will get more points".

FANS' ANGER

"They are right. We are just like them. We gave everything to win the match and we couldn't win. We are working in the best way to exploit the very good characteristics of the footballers we have. I am clear that in tranquility, patience, and work we will find the results that will accompany us and we cannot deviate from this. We played two matches in which we deserved something more".

LACK OF DECISIVENESS

"Above all the decisiveness that appears at times and at others not. There were several important actions with situations to resolve. The good thing is that we are not talking about not attacking... That we were not protagonists, that we did not generate play... It is true that we drew, that we are not happy, that we had to win but we are on the path that we have to go through".

WAS IT A PENALTY?

"If the referee didn't see it, it surely wasn't anything".

HOW DO YOU WORK ON DECISIVENESS?

"With time, with patience... Insisting on the path we have to work on. They didn't have goal opportunities except for the counterattack that we didn't resolve well and they did. The team is on the path and we have to be patient for the team to improve and we can get the points we need".
