Fernando Torres went to the press room after Atlético de Madrid B 's defeat against Antequera, in a rough match. His team did not show their best form, but the coach stood up for himself and tried to transmit calm. The man from Fuenlabrada trusts the squad and has no doubts about what his players can do.
Two of them were Javi Serrano and Víctor Mollejo , two unexpected signings for the reserve team, as both come from experience in higher categories. The coach of the second team has no doubts about the involvement of both and hopes that they will contribute their experience. "When you put on the Atlético de Madrid shirt it is enough to know that you are in a special place, and that can be said of any category," said the Madrid coach.

"Javi and Víctor have made a tremendous decision, they have decided to stay with us, be two more and pull the team forward," he said.

"I'm sure they will be important players, they should be, they are players with experience above the group, who have played in the higher categories," said Torres .
