  • Atletico Madrid trained at the RZD Arena, Lokomotiv Moscow’s home ground as the temperatures fell two degrees below zero.

    Diego Simeone‘s men will take on the hosts in the second leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie on Thursday, with the aggregate score being 3-0 in favour of Atletico.

    Speaking on the eve of the clash, Simeone said: “Cup matches are always complicated and we’re going to play with the same enthusiasm as always. We’ll have to be prepared for the atmosphere [in the RZD Arena] and the cold in order to seize control of the match.

    “All the matches we play are important for me.”

    “The only thing that counts for us it to advance to the next round,” he added.
