Atletico Madrid defender Marc Pubill explained on Wednesday, after the 1-1 draw against Galatasaray in the Champions League, that his team had "tried until the end" and considered that it was now time to think about the next match against Bodo/Glimt, which will determine whether or not they qualify among the top eight in the table.

"The team came here for the three points, it wasn't to be, and now we have to think about the next game," he told 'Movistar' after the match.

The last chance was Galatasaray's. "We had a few minutes of inaccuracy. We wanted to go for the three points, perhaps our desire got the better of us a little and we had a couple of inaccuracies that made us a little indecisive for a few minutes," he said.

Atletico will have to compete for a place in the top eight in their final match against Bodo/Glimt. "We have to think about the next match, try to get the three points and see how things turn out so we can get in," he said.

On the difficulty of defending Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. "He's a great player, and I hope to continue measuring myself against players like him for a long time," explained the defender, who feels "very comfortable in that position" at centre-back, as well as at full-back, and is "really enjoying himself".
