Athletic Bilbao, current champions of the Spanish Super Cup, will face Atlético de Madrid on Thursday in the second semifinal of this competition in search of their second consecutive trophy.
The Basque club is now facing Atlético in its first step to try to lift its second consecutive Super Cup, the third in the last ten years after the one also achieved in 2015.
“We are facing a very good team, but we are also aware of our competitive level shown in any match,” Athletic coach Marcelino García Toral said this Wednesday at the press conference prior to the match.
“To a party, equality is the predominant note and then the success tips the balance” Marcelino added.
Opposite will be Atlético de Madrid, who will appear at the King Fahd stadium with the sensitive loss of striker Antoine Griezmann.
The Frenchman suffered a relapse of his right thigh injury last Thursday in the Copa del Rey match against Rayo Majadahonda, which will prevent him from being against Athletic on Thursday.
“He is a very important player for us, it is a shame that he was injured again”, The rojiblanco coach, Diego Simeone, lamented after that meeting, who will not be able to count on defender Stefan Savic, also a victim of a muscle injury.
Atlético will have at their disposal, on the other hand, their two main scorers in LaLiga: the Uruguayan Luis Suárez, and the Argentine Ángel Correa, who scored three goals in the last two matches of the mattress team, although Simeone prefers to put the accent on the team. .
“It is a balance between all” said this Wednesday the ‘Cholo’ at a press conference.
