Atletico Madrid defender Clement Lenglet considered, after the elimination in the round of 16 of the Champions League, that Julian Alvarez's penalty, with his slip and an alleged two-touch, “was very strange”, but “that's the rules and you have to accept them”.
“We understood it because the referee was listening to something. The second time he made the gesture of two touches, but it's the first time that has happened on a football pitch. It was very strange, but that's the way the rules are and you have to accept them. It's difficult today,” he said.
“We came out strong in the game, but there were 90 minutes left. If you go out to attack them, you leave spaces for their very good strikers. I think we did pretty well during the two games, but in the end it didn't go our way and it's Madrid who won,” he said.
