With Atletico back to the wall and minutes remaining to hang extra time once morest Manchester City dwindling, Felipe – then excluded – was the author of a nasty gesture on Phil Foden. The Montenegrin defender Stefan Savic then rushed towards the English player, which had the effect of heating up the spirits of the 22 players present on the lawn.
Boosted near his sidelines, Diego Simeone would not have appreciated the behavior of Savic at all, who was very upset, as time passed and eliminated more and more Atletico from the C1.
As he harangued the crowd at the Wanda Metropolitano, The cholo was furious with his defender and came onto the field to reframe him. He was calmed down by his guardian Jan Oblak and the fourth referee. According to the Spanish press, the Argentinian would have shouted: “No, no! Play, play!” He even received a yellow card late in the game.
Savic, who also pulled the hair of Grealishwas then involved in scuffles between members of the two teams during the return to the locker room.
Savic kicked Foden off the field first. He pulled Grealish’s hair and then drove his teacher Simeone crazy by saying “you talk too much, it’s late”. He attacked Grealish once more in the hallway in the finale, the cops intervened. If we get the end of the season, it will be the new Melo #AtletiManCity #ManchesterCity #ucl pic.twitter.com/hBSL82RMdw
