The fight between the two players took place in the 92^nd minute of the game. Barcelona played out the ball from the back and it reached Torres at the halfway line. The player tried to keep the possession while Savic came in with a tackle.

Now Ferran was able to ride that tackle and get control of the ball. He passed it on but what followed next was shear frustration on part of Savic.

The Atletico defender brought down Ferran who didn’t even have the ball. And Barcelona forward didn’t liked that. In retaliation he pulled at Savic and both the players entered into a tangle.

Referee was quick to spot the incident that happened without the ball. As a result, straight reds were handed out to both the players for the conduct.

It remains unclear whether the players will be handed 2 match suspension or more.

Atletico tried to make a comeback in the game, but failed to find the back of the net.
