Tactical organisation is the key to Atlético Madrid’s success during Diego Simeone’s reign. He has built a winning culture of commitment, passion, aggressiveness and commitment, and a winning game plan based on excellent defensive organisation. They are extremely difficult to break down, even by the top attacking sides, like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Liverpool, and have consistently been one of the toughest teams to play against in the whole of Europe.

Diego Simeone’s Atlético Madrid have used these defending tactics to achieve great success when competing against teams with far greater resources.

They have also produced extremely efficient attacking play and they have had great success in scoring goals with intelligent attacking patterns of play and a counter attacking style.
