Diego Simeone was critical of the officials after Atletico Madrid s Champions League hopes were left in the balance following a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool.
Atletico ended the first half with 10 men as the LaLiga champions bid to reach the knockout phase was dealt a blow against last-16 bound Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday.
Beaten 3-2 in the reverse fixture in the Spanish capital, having also lost Antoine Griezmann to a red card on matchday three last month, Atletico conceded goals to Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane before Felipe was dismissed nine minutes prior to the interval for a cynical foul on the latter and subsequent apparent dissent.

Marouane Fellaini has completed a reported £10million move from Manchester United to Chinese Super League club Shandong Luneng.
Fellaini is believed to have signed a three-year deal in the CSL that will see him earn almost £30m after tax over the course of his stay in China.
