Atletico Madrid skipper Gabi has insisted that the Spanish champions will not underestimate Bayer Leverkusen in the last-16 stage of the Champions League.
The Spanish champions were handed what appears to be a fairly kind draw on Monday, but Gabi has said that the German side will be tough opponents.
"We're both teams that compete very well. It's going to be a complicate tie and in February when we face them, we'll have to see how straightforward or not it will be," Gabi told reporters.
"Obviously we've not underestimated anyone in the last three years and we're not going to do that now."
Atletico reached the final of the Champions League last season, where they lost out to Real Madrid in extra-time.
