Defender Guilherme Siqueira has hailed team-mate Koke after his starring role in Atlético de Madrid’s 5-0 win over Malmö FF in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The Spain international scored one and assisted a further three goals, as Diego Simeone’s side retained their place at the top of Group A.

Speaking after the match, Siqueira, who played the full 90 minutes, praised Koke’s contribution and believes he is a key member of the team.

“Koke is a great player,” he told UEFA.com. “He came through the Atlético youth system and knows what the club means. On the pitch he is so important for us, he plays with tremendous intensity for 90 minutes, all for the good of the team, always thinking of us. 

It is a pleasure for us to be able to share a pitch and a dressing room with him.”
