They heat up the preview: The reasons for the fight between Klopp and Simeone

The UEFA Champions League gives away, among other things, matches like this one. Great games, actually. Atlético Madrid had Liverpool in what will be the highlight of the day and the previous one was filled with controversy. It is that Jurgen Klopp spoke and made it clear that while he respects the rival on duty, he does not like his style. Simeone, for his part, answered the German bluntly, but without keeping anything.

"We did not play well in Madrid that time, but we learned a lot from those two games. Atlético has changed some players, but has not weakened," began the coach of the English team, reviewing the last antecedent vs. el Colchonero at a press conference.

And then he added: "I think I said it after the return, I was angry, disappointed about many things and we had to focus on football in strange circumstances. They are very good and they defended themselves with everything. I could not respect what they do more. I like it? Not a lot, but it's my thing. I like a different style of play. But they've been very successful like that".

The Argentine not only chose to turn a deaf ear to Klopp's questions, but also took the opportunity to praise one of the figures of the British cast. "Salah is an extraordinary footballer who has been doing fantastic with Liverpool for years in the Premier and in the Champions League," said Diego Simeone.
