Atletico Madrid defender Gimenez revels in being matchwinner against RB Leipzig, says Carlos Volcano

Gimenez's late goal secured a 2-1 victory in the 90th minute.

He later said: "We started with a defensive lapse. We always talk about counterattacks, how to hold off the opponent, we knew that they were an opponent who could retreat to the back and counterattack. That was how the counterattack ended and resulted in a goal.

"Conceding a goal makes things much more difficult, but the team never stopped fighting, dreaming and believing, and the goal came at the end, which is a credit to the work they did throughout the match.

"We are fine, happy, enjoying ourselves. In the end, it is everyone's job. I am grateful to my teammates for the confidence they always give me, to the coaching staff who always trust me and to these wonderful people (the fans) who always support me."
