Colchonero Chat 28: Copa del Rey quarters and Atlético pinching pennies

Ruthless Spanish efficiency saw Atlético Madrid on the precipice of the Copa del Rey semifinals, and here's Colchonero Chat to analyze it.

Robert Walker (@Trauppin) is a staff writer at Into the Calderón and the guest on this edition of the program. He joins to discuss the Copa del Rey quarterfinals in full, but particularly Atlético's 3-0 win over Eibar, which featured set piece goals (Mattress Maker of the Match Antoine Griezmann was responsible for both), a very attacking set-up, another promising performance from Nico Gaitán and much more.

Plus, the podders dive into a report in the Independent this week detailing Atleti's shady finances - which have been an issue since before the club changed hands through fraudulent means in 2003 - and how they are tied into A Stadium Called Wanda.
