Atlético Madrid secured a 2-0 win against sixth-tier side UE Vic in the Copa del Rey, with Julian Alvarez scoring both goals, though head coach Diego Simeone acknowledged the challenge posed by their opponents. UE Vic, celebrating a century of existence, saw overwhelming support from their fans, with all tickets for the match selling out quickly. Coach Ramón Carrascal, a former player of the club, expressed his admiration for Simeone, viewing the match as a pinnacle of his coaching aspirations. Meanwhile, Ángel Correa, a key player for Atlético, may leave the club next summer, with Inter Milan reportedly interested in signing him. Despite Simeone's successful tenure at Atlético, current performances have raised concerns about the team's direction and effectiveness, as they struggle in the league and Champions League. The club's recent high spending on transfers has not yet translated into on-field success, leading to questions about the future of both the team and its coach.
