Diego Forlan: ‘Atletico is always burning with revenge against Real’

I’m really happy that Atletico reunited with Real Madrid in the Champions League final.

Too busy three times, this time will be luckier, don’t you think?

For Atletico Madrid, losing just one minute away from the top spot in 2014 was an unbearable pain.

This year’s final is going to be amazing, and it’s taking place in a great stadium.

This is a golden age, not only for football in Madrid but in Spain as well.

Diego Simeone is also a better coach than he was then.

Because Atletico has a stable system, people think this team doesn’t change at all.

In other words, Atletico has had a huge change.

Gabi, another former teammate of mine, is everywhere.

Other reinforcements have made Atletico stronger.

In 2007, Atletico bought me to replace Torres himself at Liverpool.

Torres can be the factor that helps Atletico Madrid make a difference against Real Madrid in tomorrow’s reunion.

At the beginning of this season, I thought Torres wouldn’t be able to stay at Atletico for a long time.

In a recent TV program in South America that I watched, people rated Real Madrid stronger.

Real have Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema, but Atletico have encountered even stronger attacks from Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

I just hope that this time the people who leave are not Atletico people.
