MADRID (Reuters) - It would be "stupid" not to think Atletico Madrid can end Real Madrid and Barcelona's decade-long stranglehold on the La Liga title this season, coach Diego Simeone was quoted as saying on Monday.

Atletico are level at the top with champions Barca on 46 points with just under half the season played, with Real five further back in third.
