Simeone: Atletico were wasteful

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone rued his side’s profligacy in front of goal as last season’s beaten finalists opened their Champions League campaign with a 3-2 defeat to Olympiakos. The visitors were two goals adrift by the 31st minute following Arthur Masuaku's driven effort and a composed finish from on-loan Barcelona forward Ibrahim Afellay. Mario Mandzukic reduced the deficit before half-time, but Kostas Mitroglou, who returned to the club in the summer transfer window after a short and unsuccessful spell at Fulham, converted from close range to make it 3-1 after the break. Simeone told reporters afterwards: “It was a tough game, we knew it from the start. Olympiakos can qualify and they will fight with us and Juventus, who are also well positioned. "The team attacked well, had chances in the first half, but they were stronger when attacking. Olympiakos were lucky in front of goal and we were not with the chances we had."
