Simeone Picks Barcelona, PSG and Bayern as UCL’s Top Three, Excludes Arsenal
Diego Simeone has named Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich as the three strongest teams in this season’s Champions League. He deliberately left Arsenal off that list after Atletico’s 2-0 win at Camp Nou. Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sørloth scored the goals that gave Atletico their first-ever victory at Barcelona’s stadium. The result underscores Simeone’s emphasis on teamwork, resilience and seizing key moments. Reflecting on the big win, the coach called Camp Nou “incredibly difficult” but praised his side for breaking their long winless run there. Meanwhile, Arsenal beat Sporting in their quarter-final first leg and will be confident of a semifinal clash with Atletico.
