MATCH 1938 - Wednesday 25 October 2023

 SEASON 2023/24

Group Stage

CELTIC  2  ATLETICO MADRID  2

Scorers: Kyogo; Palma;  Griezmann, Morata

A terrific first half performance from Celtic saw them score two excellent goals to take a deserved 2-1 lead at the break.  In second half Celtic were unable to maintain the same levels and Atletico made a few tactical adjustments and were able to find an equaliser to take a point from th match.

Personal note:

• 4th time seeing Atletico - record 3 wins and a draw
• My 16th time seeing Celtic take on a Spanish side in European competition
• 
  

MATCH 1871 - Tuesday 15 March 2022

SEASON 2021/22

Round of 16, 2nd Leg

Venue: OLD TRAFFORD

MANCHESTER UNITED  0  ATLETICO MADRID  1

Scorer: Lodi dos Santos

Atletico score a few minutes before half time to book their place in the quarter final. It is a weak performance from United at home in a Champions League tie as they struggle to carve out decent chances.  

Current managers are Ralf Rangnick, interim and long time Atletico manager, Diego Simeone.

This is my first visit to Old Trafford in nearly 5 years making it 53 matches.

My 72nd Manchester United match.

3rd occasion seeing Atletico.

Arrived!

Great setting - the Theatre of Dreams but more of a nightmare at the moment

Happy Spaniards
