Didn’t he hold him back? Referee ignores incident in Atletico penalty area Getty

In the first UEFA Champions League semi-final, Atletico Madrid are hosting Arsenal, and a controversial incident took place during the first half.

Details: Midway through the opening half, the Gunners were taking a corner kick and, during an intense battle inside the penalty area, Koke wrapped an arm around his opponent, who then went to ground. However, the officials completely ignored the incident.

Reminder: As soon as the players of Atletico Madrid and London’s Arsenal emerged from the tunnel, the stands erupted — and not only with applause. Loyal Colchoneros supporters showered the pitch with thousands of rolls of toilet paper.
