Atletico Madrid manager, Diego Simeone, has admitted that they deserved to lose to Real Madrid on Sunday.
The current LaLiga champions were defeated 2-0 in the Madrid Derby.
Karim Benzema and Marcos Asensio got the goals in either half, as Carlo Ancelotti opened up a 13-point gap at the top of the table.
Simeone, speaking after the game, hailed Real’s ruthless finishing and how they used the counter-attack.
“In football being clinical is the most important thing. Madrid are absolutely clinical at the moment. They get a chance, and they score.
“From there, the game starts to change. We had some chances at the start of the second half, and then they used the counter-attack well and scored a great goal, and won the game fairly,” he said.
