The league title for This Atletico Madrid was special and so the protagonists of this consecration were made clear, after 7 years of that epic at Camp Nou. One of the most excited was Luis Suárez, the team’s goalscorer in La Liga with 21 many, so he lived last year when in Barcelona he was told by phone that they were not going to take it into account. Atletico Madrid opened the door for him and he didn’t disappoint.
“Since the start of the season I was belittled and Atletico opened the doors to show me that one is in force. Thank you to this great club for trusting me, my wife, my children for the day to day. I’ve been in football for many years and it’s the year I’ve suffered the most,” Suarez said still on the field.
Excited to tears, the cameras picked him up when he communicated with his family through a video call with the title in his pocket and thanks to his goal, number 21, which left him fourth on the tournament scorers table. “It’s special for everything I touch suffer, there’s my statistics, there’s Luis Suarez,” said the Uruguayan, who won his fifth league in the last seven appearances.
