Lisandro Martínez’s reaction following a 2-0 Champions League defeat to Atlético de Madrid has drawn criticism from former British players, adding another point of scrutiny after a difficult European night against the Madrid club.
The Argentine defender, widely known as Licha, was pictured during the match against Atlético. The result left his side beaten by two goals in the Champions League, while the post-match focus shifted to Martínez’s response to the defeat.
Former British players criticised the defender’s reaction after the final whistle, with the incident becoming a talking point beyond the scoreline in Madrid.
