Atletico Madrid saw how coach Diego Simeone was sent off during the Spanish Super Cup against Real Madrid.
With Atletico ahead 1-0 after 25 minutes, Atletico had ten men on the pitch due to an injury to Juanfran. The ref didn't allow him back on after a few minutes, which made Simeone go nuts. He started waving his hands and screaming at the ref and his staff. Referee Fernandez Borbalan had enough, approached to the sideline and sent Simeone to the dressing room.
After being sent off, the fourth official invited Simeone off the pitch, receiving a not so friendly pat on the head. Want to watch?
Diego Simeone has been sent off for dissent, it appears. Here is his reaction. A real firecracker, that man. #Atleti https://t.co/X7H12F9bWe
