Coupet back for Atletico Madrid's Anfield visit
4/11/2008 15:41

Atletico Madrid coach Javier Aguirre recalled goalkeeper Gregory Coupet to his squad that travelled to Liverpool yesterday ahead of their UEFA Champions League tonight.
The former Lyon and French international goalkeeper has been out of action for three weeks with a muscle problem and his place in the first team has been covered by Leo FranCo
However, the bad news for Atletico, who drew 1-1 against Liverpool in the Vicente Calderon stadium two weeks ago, is that they are still without defenders Tomas Ujfalusi and Georgius Setaridis.
Ujfalusi is still recovering from a torn calf muscle, while the Greek full back also has physical problems.
The Atletico expedition flew to Liverpool yesterday morning before training on the Anfield pitch in the evening.
