Having eliminated Barcelona and Bayern Munich to reach the Champions League final, Diego Simeone says Atletico Madrid is beating the best.
Diego Simeone believes Atletico Madrid has defeated two of the world's best three teams to reach the Champions League final.
Atletico overcame defending champion Barcelona in the quarterfinal, before Antoine Griezmann's goal at Allianz Arena on Tuesday eliminated Bayern Munich on away goals following a 2-2 aggregate draw.
Simeone acknowledged it has been a hugely impressive campaign from his team and was particularly proud of its response to a brilliant first-half display from Bayern.
"This Champions League has been spectacular and very difficult," said the coach.
