Raul Garcia: 'We can challenge on three fronts'

Raul Garcia says that Atletico Madrid can challenge for the Champions League, La Liga and the Copa del Rey this season.

Atletico Madrid midfielder Raul Garcia reckons that his side can realistically challenge on all three fronts this season.

The Los Rojiblancos midfielder scored the winning goal as Diego Simeone's charges beat Valencia 2-0 in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday evening.

"We are still on the same path as before, we have enough depth in the squad to battle in three competitions which is what we are doing," Garcia told AS.

"Valencia are difficult opponents in spite of however they are doing in the league. In the end we prevailed and the result speaks for itself," he said.

"Yes, it's fair to say that this was a demanding game for us. We have reached the level where we cannot lose any game and now, that's what makes other teams want to beat us. But physically, the team is still strong."

Atleti are currently second in La Liga.
