Some absolute shite getting spoken in here mind. Atletico are usually very impressive tactically and I don’t see how you can’t enjoy watching the way they defend. Watching that Liverpool tie was incredible to watch how they shut Liverpool down from the fullbacks onwards. Also taught a few things to other teams, who then exploited them in the same way and had similar success. That said, I wasn’t sure about Simeones approach today and I do think he’s got this one wrong, not setting with the usual 2 strikers and approaching it their normal manner. Think Nagelsmann has just outdone him so far though

I think Simeone would have preferred one of the bigger named teams especially over 1 leg.

Defending is relatively easy - what interests me in football are the different approaches to creating attacking football. That's why I never watch an Atletico match - they offer nothing of interest. Just hope and pray that these leeches don't get blood today.
