Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid have a rivalry for years, the city of Madrid stops when there is a derby, and the players are infected by that atmosphere. Filipe Luís is one of the players who has been able to experience this type of matches, since for several seasons he was part of the ‘Colchonero’ club.
The Brazilian comments on how he experienced one of these classics and gives details of what happened with Ángel Di María, who at that time played for Real Madrid. The defender tried to remove the Argentine, who was one of the club’s figures, from the game. ‘Merengue’ and he achieved it.
“I’m going to open my heart about the biggest regret of my career. If there is something that I really regret having done, and I would like to go back in time and not do it again, it was against Ángel Di María”the former soccer player expressed first.
“I arrived at Atlético de Madrid and we were going to play against Real Madrid. Kun Agüero told me: “Filipe, if you get close to him, he will get lost, he will leave the game. At the first opportunity, tell him about his wife.” And I came to Di María and told him: 2Your wife I don’t know what.” I cursed him, I pronounced the name of his wife… And there he looked at me, he was crestfallen, I won the whole game. And he didn’t really have a good performance.”added Filipe.
“I came home and I regretted it so much. “Say Maria… a thousand apologies, friend, sorry for having done that to you.”concluded the 38-year-old retired player.
