According to the report from football-espana, Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has been clear that his side will not be giving Real Madrid a guard of honour after the latter won the Spanish Supercup last Sunday. Last season too, Los Rojiblancos refused to do so, and Simeone confirmed that ‘nothing had changed’.informationguidenigeria
Real Madrid ran over Atletico in the closing stages of extra time in Saudi Arabia, eventually coming out 5-3 winners. However Simeone denied to Diario AS that it was a physical problem. For him, it was all about the individuals in his side defending better.JAMB Portal

There is no doubt that doing so would risk the ire of the Metrpolitano if they were to form one. It used to be seen as a sign of respect for sides that had won things in Spain, but especially when sides from the big three are involved, the focus has more been on the humiliation for the opponents, rather than honouring the victors.
