As the clock ticked down, Simeone approached Berta, who had moved toward the pitch side area. The Atletico boss appeared to be imploring the referee to blow the whistle for full-time. However, when Berta walked from the tunnel area towards the field after the ball went out of play, Simeone reacted aggressively by shoving the Italian, who he worked with for years at Atletico, forcing the fourth official and various club representatives to step in and separate the two men before the situation escalated further.
