Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone has insisted that his side “must think only of victory” when they take on Malmo in a Champions League fixture tonight.
Last season’s Champions League finalists, who defeated Italian champions Juventus 1-0 earlier in the month, are currently third in Group A with three points from two games.
On the other hand, Malmo defeated Olympiacos 2-0 in their last Champions League outing to move atop the group standings by virtue of having a better goal difference.
And Simeone, whose side began their European adventure with a 3-2 loss to Olympiacos, underlined the importance of Atletico Madrid coming out with the full three points from the Vicente Calderon against the Swedish outfit.
“We have to play a smart match, be alert and put the ball in the best areas for us”, he told UEFA’s official site.
