Atletico Madrid star puts pressure on referee ahead of Madrid derby

The Madrid derby is here, and it’s expected to be a feisty clash between both sides.

Atletico Madrid midfielder Marcos Llorente, has tried to play mind games with the referees ahead of this game, as he claimed his side can beat Real Madrid.

He said: “I have no worries.

“Would winning the derby mean a step up in the standings? Yes, that would be a big step forward. Everything would seem better. Beating Real Madrid with a good start to the season gives you a lot of strength for what is to come….”
