After winning the third round of the King's Cup, Atlético de Madrid has achieved a 13-game winning streak in all competitions, equaling their best record in team history. Ever since the arrival of "Little Spider," Atlético's games have become increasingly exciting to watch. He truly is a master of the mystical arts, always reaping championships whether at Manchester City, Argentina, or Atlético.
This season, Atlético has had other unexpected joys. The Argentine contingent has shone brightly, making it hard not to suspect that Simeone is nurturing talent for the nation. De Paul has welcomed another peak season in his career, repeatedly saving Atlético from dire straits. And Molina is no longer the leaky full-back he once was, transforming into a speedy winger during the World Cup.
The most pleasant surprise has been Little Simeone. Initially thought to be just another nepotism player, he has performed so strongly at Atlético. If Simeone can train his own son to success, then the issue of Argentina's wingers could be resolved. So far, we can consider Simeone to be patriotic; these Argentine players are performing exceptionally well, all thanks to Simeone's coaching.
Unknowingly, Atlético has reached a 13-game winning streak, just one win away from creating a new team record. Records are not as important as victories, and the team's chemistry is even more crucial. Seeing players like Griezmann reach the pinnacle of their careers, it's clear that Atlético is set to make big moves this season. It remains to be seen if they can bring back the coveted Champions League trophy.
