Atletico coach wary of Leicester ahead of ‘complex’ Champions League clash

By Daily Sports on April 18, 2017

 

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone believes Leicester City are similar to his team as he prepares for a “complex” Champions League second leg.

The LaLiga giants carry a 1-0 lead to the King Power Stadium on Tuesday as they look to reach the semi-finals.

Simeone said there were plenty of similarities between his team and Leicester, the Premier League champions who have recovered from a poor start to the season.

“Leicester depend on the details, as we also depend on the details,” the Argentinian told a news conference on Monday.

“It’s a well-worked and defensively balanced team and we are also similar like that. So it’s an evenly-matched and complex qualifier.”

Leicester are on a three-match winless run ahead of the clash, while Atletico are unbeaten in their past 10 outings.
