The meeting between Liverpool and Atlético de Madrid in the Champions League was very lively from start to finish. Quickly led by two goals to Anfield, the Spanish club found the mental resources to return to the scoring thanks to a superb double of Llorente, in particular this recovery ten minutes from the term allowing his family to return to 2-2. It was without counting on Virgil Van Dijk who catapulted this last head at the bottom of the nets, offering the victory (3-2) to the Reds.
It was too much for Diego Simeone. Heckled throughout the match by the supporters behind his sidelines, the Argentinian attacked one of them and had to be retained by the Stadiers. He even returned a second time. He believes he had fingers of honor but the referee had to return him prematurely to the locker room, to the delight of Anfield. Very angry in the stadium tunnels, he still had not come down when he presented himself against the diffuser.

The crazy scenario of the match did not help calm the spirits either.
«With the opponent who scores at the end, we turn around and we continue to take insults, and with tension, that’s what happenscontinues cholo. The referee? He told me that he understood, but I hope that Liverpool can improve and that if they identify the culprit, there will be consequences». The Madrid coach regrets his lead of lead. “”There have been insults throughout the match, including gestures, but I have to stay calm and support everything, including insults and gestures.»
