Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has insisted that he is 'not nervous' as the La Liga race comes to a close.

Four points from their final two league games would be enough for Atletico to claim the title this season, but they travel to Barcelona on the final weekend of the season.

Simeone, however, has said that he 'ignores his feelings' as the games continue to arrive thick and fast.

"The best thing for me is when the games are getting closer. Training is so important, but I love the moment of adrenaline, that feeling of vertigo, wondering what's going to happen in the game," he told El Larguero.

"My job means I often have to ignore my feelings. The worst thing is having to pick 10 plus the keeper, because everyone would give their eye tooth for the team and I feel bad, but I have to take the decisions."

Atletico will also contest the final of the Champions League against Real Madrid later this month.
