ATLETICO DE MADRID forward DIEGO FORLAN scored the first goal in last nights 2-0 victory over Athletic de Bilbao & in doing so let out some long held "steam" towards the Atletico supporters in his post celebration.
The Uruguayan striker ran straight to the area where the more "extreme" Atletico fans congregate, faced them directly & screamed "...AND NOW WHAT!". Some media sources have gone further & have added that those words were followed with "...NOW SUCK THIS!". These last words cannot be proven & SFS will not give them credibility here at all. What is true is that the player did certainly release tension that had been building up within after fans had questioned his performances this season & he was receiving whistles.
The player later confirmed this to Spanish TV after the match with:
"Estoy dolido porque parece que la gente tiene poca memoria"
(translated: "It hurts because it seems people have little memory")
making reference to his outstanding contribution last season after gaining the European Golden Boot as the highest goal scorer in European Football. However, some at the Club, including the fans believe the player this season is "bitter" with Atletico for "stopping" in the pre-season a possible transfer offer from Real Madrid, & thus feel this is the reason for Forlan´s lower goal tally & less than 100% performances this season.
Either way, one should not take this out of context & I am sure the player is feeling better today with that release of tension & getting some words off this chest. Nothing like goals to ease the pains away. Here is the VIDEO of the goal that served to help Atletico onto victory & had a therapeutic effect:
