Simeone lauds Arda Turan impact

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone hailed the impact Arda Turan and the rest of his substitutes following the 2-1 victory over local rivals Real Madrid on Saturday. The La Liga champions took the lead in the 10th minute when Tiago headed past Iker Casillas from a corner, before Cristiano Ronaldo levelled from the penalty spot. Turan - one of the players to join the action from the bench - settled the derby when he swept in an effort 14 minutes from time. And Simeone, who watched from the stands as he continued to serve a touchline ban, said Arda, along with fellow replacements Antoine Griezmann and Mario Suarez, were crucial to his side's success at Santiago Bernabeu. "I think we started well in the first half and later I didn't like the way the team was playing," he said. "In the second half with Koke in the centre we had more control and Arda gave us more creativity and Griezmann more pace."
