Champions League trophy would complete Simeone revolution

By Richard Martin BARCELONA (Reuters) - Diego Simeone has turned Atletico Madrid from a team teetering on the brink of relegation into European heavyweights. Avenging their 2014 Champions League defeat by Real Madrid on Saturday would complete the transformation. The former Atletico midfielder inherited a team that had just suffered early elimination from the King’s Cup when he succeeded Gregorio Manzano in December 2011.
