Calcutta Atletico beats strong in India. This set, linked to Atletico Madrid and shares colors with colchoneros, It is one of the finalists of the newly formed Indian Super League which we spoke to you a while ago in Colgados. But it is not the only peculiarity of this Atleti thousands of kilometers of the original, also it is a “spanish team”. Starting with the coach and gathering up to six Spanish players, almost all of them old acquaintances and veterans of the League.

Antonio Lopez, who led among several teams to Valencia for a few months, Calcutta Athletic directs this play in which players like Josemi, former Villarreal, Málaga, Mallorca among others, Jofre Mateu, Raised in the quarry of Barca and Levante former he was three seasons, Espanyol, Murcia and Girona, Borja former quarry of Madrid, Getafe and Depor and Luis García, former Valladolid, Tenerife, Liverpool, Atletico Madrid and experienced in Mexican soccer. He played for Spain and played the World Cup 2006.

García, It is indeed the captain and the team's star. Arnal Conde, last player in the Spanish second division in the ranks of teams like Alcorcón and experienced in the league of Cyprus was the last to reach the Spanish club. He did so from the AFE sessions. The most unknown of all is surely Basilio Sancho, a goalkeeper formed in the quarry of Atletico and experienced in Segunda B defending the goal of Fuenlabrada completes the trio of Spaniards of this peculiar Atletico Kolkata. They certainly exceed thirty.

An Indian Superliga that as we tell, mixture and young unknown players with real-beens who already spend the 40 and even some, He has come out of retirement to participate in it. Therefore we can find illustrious forties as James, Saucer, Del Piero or Materazzi has come out of retirement after three years to serve as player-coach in Chennaiyin. In this tournament we could also find illustrious veterans like Nesta and Capdevila. Sin duda, a peculiar competition that is already in its final phase. ¿Repeat the feat Calcutta Athletic older brother?.
