Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone praised his team’s second-half performance after earning a 1-1 draw at Barcelona in LaLiga on Wednesday.
The visitors fell behind to an Ivan Rakitic goal just before half-time at Camp Nou, but Angel Correa secured a point with his equaliser just after the hour-mark.
Simeone was pleased with what his team produced after the break as they left with a well-earned point.
“For us, it is always difficult to draw anything positive from Camp Nou,” he told a news conference.
“In the first half, we defended well, but we could not counter-attack. The goal in the second half made us react.
“He gave us power in the midfield to counter better in the last few minutes with [Fernando] Torres, [Antoine] Griezmann and Correa.”
The result sees Atletico sitting fourth in the table, four points adrift of league leaders and city rivals Real Madrid.
