Atlético de Madrid’s 14-Game Winning Streak – A Historic Run in 2025

In early 2025, Atlético de Madrid delivered a defining statement to Spanish and European football: 14 consecutive victories across all competitions. This blistering run — the longest in club history — marked a period of dominance, resilience, and tactical clarity under Diego Simeone.

A Turning Point After Setback

It all started following a disappointing defeat to Real Betis in October 2024. What came next was a relentless surge, as Atlético stacked win after win in La Liga, Copa del Rey, and the Champions League, demonstrating cohesion and consistency rarely seen in modern football.
