"We played good but we still have one week more, so we can improve some things but it was a good test for us today.
"The most important thing is we play every game like a cup game. For 90 minutes, we will fight for our lives to take a point or three points. Every game is important and we have to play well in every game."
Gross added Brighton's second half performance against Atletico will give them confidence for the opening game of the season against Manchester City on Saturday.
