Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has told Real Madrid that there won’t be any form of guard of honour ahead of Thursday’s Copa del Rey clash
Simeone in a chat with TribalFootball, stated that they will look for situations where they can harm Real Madrid.
“It is clear that it’s not just another game because it also has a tie in between, there is no margin for any. We need our people, that the environment is as it usually is in the Metropolitano and that we can transmit energy to the fans so that they can accompany us.

“We are going to look for situations where we believe that we can harm them and they arrive with the positive energy after winning the Super Cup right after two big games. They have a lot of enthusiasm, a very positive dynamic … we are going to find a very good rival.”
On the guard of honour, he added: “Our opinion has not changed since the last time. Yes there will be great respect and a great greeting to the coach and his staff, how can it be otherwise, but our people come first and we respect our people.”
