Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone was delighted after their 5-1 thrashing of Cadiz.
Antoine Griezmann scored twice in the first half before Alvaro Morata and Yannick Carrasco, from the spot, made it 4-0 after halftime. Anthony Lozano pulled one back for Cadiz, but Atletico fullback Nahuel Molina completed the scoring in the 73rd minute.
The break did us a lot of good," coach Simeone told DAZN afterwards.
The team recovered their enthusiasm, their level. The team attack with enthusiasm, defend collectively and that has made us much better.
Not to mention that many people stopped believing in what we were doing. We are going to think the same way. We are looking to be better ourselves."
