“You’re shameless.” Diego Simeone lashes out at referees after Lenglet’s red card
In the latest La Liga fixture, Atlético Madrid travelled to face Celta Vigo and were held to a 1–1 draw. Despite taking the lead, Los Colchoneros were reduced to ten men and conceded an equaliser — something that infuriated their head coach.
Details: According to Movistar, the network’s microphones caught Diego Simeone’s outburst towards the match officials after Clément Lenglet was sent off. The Argentine manager shouted at the referees: “You’re shameless. You’re shameless.”
In the second half, Atlético failed to hold on while playing a man down and conceded a goal, ending the match in a 1–1 stalemate.
By the way, Antoine Griezmann recently netted his 200th goal for the club. The Frenchman needed 454 appearances to reach the milestone, now standing 28 goals clear of Luis Aragonés.
Reminder: Atlético Madrid recently thrashed Eintracht Frankfurt away and managed to equal a club benchmark in the first half.
