Who managed Atlético Madrid to the 2013-14 La Liga title?

Diego Simeone managed Atlético Madrid to the 2013–14 La Liga title.

Simeone had taken charge of Atlético in December 2011 and quickly reshaped the club around defensive organization, intensity and fast counterattacking. His approach helped Atlético win the 2012 Europa League, the 2012 UEFA Super Cup and the 2013 Copa del Rey before the historic league triumph.

Atlético secured the 2013–14 championship in the final league match by drawing 1–1 with Barcelona at Camp Nou. Barcelona had taken an early lead through Alexis Sánchez, but Diego Godín equalized with a header, giving Atlético the point it needed to finish above both Barcelona and Real Madrid.

It was Atlético’s 10th Spanish league title and its first since 1996. The achievement was especially notable because it interrupted the dominance of Spain’s two wealthiest clubs. Atlético also reached the 2014 Champions League final under Simeone, losing to Real Madrid after extra time.
