Another controversial moment.
Liverpool and Atlético Madrid clashed in the first round of the UEFA Champions League, and a heated incident took place in the first half.
Details: A Liverpool player entered the penalty box and tried to send a cross into the center. An Atlético Madrid defender made a sliding challenge and the ball hit his hand, but the referees chose not to call a penalty.
Meanwhile, in the match between Real and Marseille, another contentious moment arose. French midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia made a run and took a shot, but it was blocked by Éder Militão. He extended his hand during the block, yet the referees did not penalize the action.
Reminder: Mohamed Salah achieved another Champions League record for an English club.
