A meeting that was to go smoothly but which finally degenerated. While the name of Julian Alvarez appeared during the exchanges, Diego Simeone wanted to understand why the penalty sequence of his player – the one who had cost the victory at Atlético last season in the Champions League against Real Madrid – was not used as a support.

Despite the insistence of El Cholo, Carlos Velasco Carballo refused to access his requests. A posture that the 55 -year -old coach did not accept. Furious, he finally left the room, launching: “I'm ashamed. Shame”before joining his players on the field for the training session. According to the Spanish program El Club of Uríaconfirmed by ASthe incident has perished Atlético players, who still do not understand the inflexibility of UEFA.
