“Speak now” – Brahim Diaz claps back at Diego Simeone during Madrid derby

Tuesday’s Madrid derby at the Santiago Bernabeu, which saw Real Madrid emerge as 2-1 victors, had its fair share of needle between the two teams, with the biggest moment occurring between Brahim Diaz and Atletico Madrid head coach Diego Simeone.

Earlier in the week, Simeone was asked during his pre-match press conference about how Real Madrid could line-up without the suspended Jude Bellingham. He gave his thoughts, and made it clear that he did not think Brahim would be counted on by Ancelotti.

“Real Madrid will seek to compensate for that position, I imagine with Camavinga and Luka Modric. There is also the possibility of Brahim, but I don’t think so. Obviously, there is a pattern that repeats itself.”

Brahim to Simeone: “Talk now, you spoke yesterday, talk now.”
