The football summit that brings together Manchester City and Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final first leg tomorrow, Tuesday, will witness an exciting and enthusiastic confrontation between coaches Pep Guardiola and Diego Simeone, as historical memories are renewed that may inflame the meeting and draw the attention of the fans to the expected technical dialogue.
Guardiola’s first confrontation with Simeone was in the 25th round of the League for the 2011-2012 season, during the Barcelona-Atletico match, when Barca won at the Vicente Calderon 2-1, where he scored for the Catalan team Messi and Alves, against a goal scored by Falcao for the owners of the land.
The second meeting was renewed after 4 years in the semi-finals of the Champions League when Guardiola moved to lead Bayern Munich, while Simeone continued with Atletico, where the Madrid team won the first leg at home with a goal, and in the return the Bavarian team responded 2-1, but Atletico qualified, benefiting from the calculation rule The goal is away from the ground with two goals.
Before tomorrow’s match, Guardiola played 14 matches at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League this season, winning 11 times, drawing one and two defeats, and scored 40 goals, while his team conceded 10 goals.
As for Simeone’s results outside the stronghold of Atletico this season in the “La Liga”, it seems not encouraging, as he played 15 matches, during which he scored 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats, and his team scored 28 goals compared to receiving 23 goals against him.
The “fourth” renews the confrontations of Guardiola and Simeone
