Carrasco sent vs Feyenoord Simeone appeared to enjoy some success in his attempts to diffuse the situation, but it will come as no shock that Carrasco had currently given the referee adequate ammo to send him off.
Yannick Carrasco has actually been dispatched throughout Atletico Madrid’s clash with Feyenoord.
Contrary to the video game’s billing as a pre-season friendly, tensions were plainly running high with Carrasco getting his marching orders for a heated exchange with Tyrell Malacia.
With the Dutch hosts leading 1-0 in the 39th minute courtesy of Bryan Linssen’s strike, the Atletico forward saw red when trying to pickpocket the ball from his Feyenoord competitor near the corner flag.
All in all, it made for a really eyebrow-raising situation for a pre-season friendly, so be sure to have a look at all the carnage down below to draw your own conclusions about the
drama: Rest guaranteed that we have not heard the last of this. A lot for a friendly …
It’s impossible to develop what might have been said between the players at this phase, but it’s safe to assume that very little of the discussion did anything in the way of relaxing down Carrasco.
You understand things are serious when you see a manager going through the thought process of intervening themselves and ultimately deciding to sprint throughout the pitch during the video game.
We can only assume that the situation will be elucidated in the coming hours but as things stand, it looks as though Carrasco can anticipate an earful from his supervisor in the dressing space …
Feyenoord vs Atletico Madrid
After some heated jockeying and dribbling, Malacia eventually handled to get the ball away, but his left-footed punt forward ultimately saw him enter into a tangle with Carrasco.
This, it would appear, was the last straw due to the fact that Carrasco quickly ended up being incensed and appeared to consign himself to a red card by tossing out at the downed 21-year-old.
But Carrasco wasn’t ended up there with the Belgian proceeding to penetrate and ridicule Malacia while he rolled around on the pitch, triggering a bigger fracas between the Feyenoord and Atletico players.

Carrasco loses his temper
Amidst all the carnage at the Feyenoord Stadium, the focal point of the drama proceeded to focus on Carrasco’s clash with Orkun Kökçü who had probably ran over in defence of Malacia.
What followed was an anger-fuelled exchange from which Kökçü emerged with whats seemed blood on both his face and neck, though the cause of this remains uncertain at the time of composing.
Regardless, however, the situation got so out of hand that Diego Simeone found it necessary to make a beeline for Carrasco by running on to the pitch and attempting to calm him down.
