The first training of the year 2022 for the Atlético de Madrid left a curious image. The ‘Profe ‘Ortega, physical trainer of the mattress team wanted the work to begin with some fun exercise for the players, to breathe a little before getting down to work with the more tactical and technical work.
A brand of the house, although it could be said that it could be considered a kind of malevolent reinvention of the already popular ‘red light, green light’ of the series until recently in fashion, ‘The Squid Game’. A customized version in which the players of the Athletic they had two lines, one red and one white, between which they had to move.
The Prof was giving the orders, but in this reinvention of the aforementioned test, it was a matter of not staying last when the Uruguayan gave the instructions. With a clear trap. The opposite of what was ordered had to be done. Yes Ortega he asked to go to the red line, you had to go to the white line. And backwards. If he ‘Teacher‘said inside, you had to stay outside. If it pointed to the right, it was to the left. And so on continuously.
WHO LOST THE GAME?
A malicious game designed for mattress players to exercise their reaction capacity as well as their mental agility. The difference between the result and the ‘Squid Game’ It was not that the one who lost was shot, but that the one who lost had to submit to a shower of slaps from his teammates. Nobody wanted to be the last when it came to reacting or making a mistake in the movement. Once it was up to Carrasco, another to Vrsaljko who lamented that he had slipped, Gimenez… but the one who finally ended up ‘pringando’ was Felipe Augusto Monteiro, that he lost the game and submitted to the shower of affection from his teammates.
