Yeah, that's why Atleti has won 5, drawn 4 and lost 1 in the teams' last 10 meetings. I don't know why you'd give any more motivation to a Simeone side. What a dumb thing to say, even if you believe it to be true.

Well Real might have better players, but Atleti plays far better as a team.

He's right.... Nowhere did he say Real as a team is better that Atleti.

But your point about motivation is well taken.

How much more motivated could Atleti players get playing their arch-rivals in the biggest club soccer game in the world?

Oblak is better than navas
Filipe Luis and carvjal are interchangeable

For the most part real is more talented but it isn't that big of a gap

If it weren't for Navas...Rafa would have torpedoed Real's season before January.

I'm assuming his mind game is to get some cheap YC early by some AM players and then reap a read from one of them later.

I mean, chances are this game sees a red card at some point anyway, right?

It's not a champions league match without a Sergio Ramos red card

I don't think anyone will argue that as a unit the Atleti backline is far better than that of Real.

I'd be interested to see save number....I bet they are pretty damn close.

It certainly isn't a final without a header from the same guy that rips the heart out of a team.
