Atletico Madrid is confident and prepared enough to face Leipzig in the Quarter Finals of the Champions League. The Los Rojibloncos are determined to reach the last four of the competition and win it this year as they have been in a good run this season and the fans are expecting a Trophy this outing.
The momentum towards the current state was a result which no one expected at Anfield when Ateltico Madrid beat the Champions Liverpool by 3-2 in the Round of 16 tie before the Pandemic hit across Europe and the Football came to a halt, Diego Costa Ateltico Striker said prior to match against Leipzig that “The Game against Liverpool will go down in History and was one of the best games we have had in a long time. It gave fans high expectations and we will give our best to try and meet those expectations”.
On the other hand RB Leipzig has been drawn with a Spanish team in the UEFA competition for the first time and the team will be high on morale after they beat Tottenham 4-0 over two legs reaching the Quarter Finals but a major blow to their hopes for progressing further in the competition was dealt when their star Striker Timo Werner decided not to extend his current contract until the end of the Champions league and made a switch to London for Chelsea.
Atletico will be feeling lucky and relaxed as their foes Real Madrid crashed out in Round of 16 against Man City as they were the ones who stood against Atleti and denied them Champions league success in Finals of 2014 and 2016, along with the fact Cristiano Ronaldo who ran a horror show last season against Atletico with his Hat trick in Juventus to knock them out in the Round of 16 is also eliminated from the competition after their set back against French club Lyon, This is more then anything they could have asked for and the Atletico fans would surely be counting their lucky stars for a Trophy this season.
