Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone was left frustrated as his side's winning run was halted by Celtic in Glasgow.
Diego Simeone scrunched his nose, gave a nonchalant shrug of his shoulders, and waved a comforting hand in the face of the anarchy raining down around him.
This ground on these nights does strange things to people, albeit not recently. Eleven years have gone by since Barcelona, arguably the greatest ensemble of footballers in modern times, were humbled in the east end of Glasgow.Thirteen minutes after Kyogo Furuhashi's opener, Nahuel Molina's panicked clearance into the stand was met with a two-handed signal from Simeone appealing for calm.
Luis Palma's shot brought Celtic Park to its feet. The Atletico coach muttered to himself frantically, while 15 yards to his left Brendan Rodgers punched the Glasgow sky. Javier Galan was making his first start of the season, and it only lasted until the interval. He was culpable for both Celtic goals, firstly for not following Kyogo, then standing off Palma. He also repeatedly gave Daizen Maeda encouragement to stretch his legs.
Atletico came into this one on the back of six straight victories, but there would not be one coming to give Simeone something positive to get worked up over.
