(Reuters) - Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is hoping the success his players had on international duty will help revive the club's fortunes after a difficult month in which they lost successive LaLiga games and were knocked out of the Champions League.

Third-placed Atletico are seven points behind league leaders Barcelona, who beat them 4-2 on March 16, days after they were eliminated from the Champions League last 16 on penalties.
