It was founded as a sports club of Madrid by Basque students sympathetic to Athletic Bilbao. The team in the Spanish capital will no longer be a subsidiary in 1921, when it dismembered the Basque team. However, the similarity of uniforms, names and badges, arose because of the way the Madrid club was created, remained. His best period came between 1939 and 1975, winning seven of the ten titles in the Spanish league, the 1962 European Cup and finishing second in the UEFA Champions League in 1974. The runner-up in 1974, by the way, brought Atletico a curious position of the first intercontinental cup club, not winning the most important continental interclub trophy: the team defeated the Argentines from Independiente, not winning the UEFA Champions Cup, lost to Bayern Munich. The German club gave the Spanish place. Atletico will again be a Champions League finalist in 2014 and 2016 without winning it. He previously won the UEFA Europa League in 2010 and 2012, a title he will win again in 2018.

El hispano brasileño había estado entre algodones durante toda la semana, pero al final Simeone decidió apostar por Costa al estar recuperado. En el minuto 13 se rompió Diego Costa y tuvo que dejar su puesto a Adrián. Las imágenes llorando en el banquillo del de Lagarto hablan a las claras de que el jugador se temía lo peor: perderse la final en Lisboa. El cabezazo del uruguayo Diego Godín, el gol definitivo para el título de Liga del Atlético de Madrid en el Camp Nou, realzó la importancia de la estrategia a balón parado del campeón, que ha marcado de esa forma trece goles en esta temporada, transformados en once puntos en las últimas nueve jornadas.
