1998–99 Atlético Madrid season

93rd season in existence of Atlético Madrid Atlético Madrid 1998–99 Head coach Arrigo Sacchi (until 14 February)Carlos Sánchez Aguiar (from 15 February to 23 March)Radomir Antić President Jesús Gil La Liga 13th UEFA Cup Semi-final Copa del Rey Runners-up _redborderandshoulder _am9899h _redborderandshoulder _whitetop FF0000 FF0000 FF0000 0000FF FF0000 _atm9800a _atm9800a _atm9800a _atm9800a _atm0001a FF0000 04003F FF0000 04003F 04003F 1997–98 1999–2000 The 1998–1999 campaign was the 93rd season in Atlético Madrid's history and their 64th season in La Liga, the top division of Spanish football. Season summary Arrigo Sacchi was sacked in February with Atlético in the UEFA Cup quarter-finals but also mired in the bottom half of the table. B-team manager Carlos Sánchez Aguiar took charge for the next month, guiding Atlético to the UEFA Cup semi-finals, before handing the reins to Radomir Antić. Antić had guided the club to the title three years previously, but ultimately the high point of his second spell in charge would be reaching the Copa del Rey final, only to be thrashed 3–0 by Valencia. The league form under Antić continued to be mediocre and Atlético were also knocked out of the UEFA Cup in the semi-finals for the second season running, by eventual champions Parma. Although Atlético qualified for the UEFA Cup due to their domestic cup run, this season would prove to be the beginning of the end for Atlético's status as one of Spain's top clubs for most of the next decade; it would be five more years until Atlético recorded their next top-half finish, and another three before their return to European competition.
