Atlético de Madrid lost this Sunday to
Feyenoord
2-1 in a friendly.
But the note was not the result, but
Diego Simeone's
anger
with one of his clients
, Yannick Carrasco, who had been expelled after attacking a rival.
The coach
crossed the entire court and took the player off the court
.
"Go away,"
the Cholo shouted, quite taken with the situation.
The strong claim of the Argentine was in the face of the Belgian midfielder, who reacted with surprise to see him in the middle of the field to intercede in the tumult that had been generated.
It all happened 40 minutes into the first half, when Feyenoord was 1-0 up.
It was then that Carrasco tried to press the exit of the side Tyrell Malacia and ended up falling on him.
Already on the ground,
he kicked him
claiming that he had left his leg.

Far from calming down, both players stopped wanting to follow her, which caused the reaction of the rest of the players, who huddled around: some to separate and others to add fuel to the fire.
In the midst of the brawl, the Belgian also grabbed Orkun Kokcua
by
the neck,
who slashed his face with a tremendous scratch
.
This provoked a quick reaction from Dennis Higler, match referee:
he showed him the red card
.
Chaos was already unleashed.
It was when the Argentine coach crossed the entire playing field and
demanded that his footballer go to the locker room
, in front of a Dutch stadium that was abuzz.
Scandal unleashed in the friendly of Atlético Madrid.

With one less player and quite buckled in the complement, seven minutes to go, the Colchonero
equalized through another Argentine: Ángel Correa
, who entered in the second half.
But, when the game was dying and in injury time, Naoufal Bannis converted the goal of the Rotterdam team's victory.
Nehuén Pérez, Rodrigo De Paul and Giuliano Simeone were starters in the Spanish champion who completed his fifth preparation match and awaits the start of the League next Sunday with a defeat when he visits Celta de Vigo in Catalonia.
