The Madrid derby played on Saudi soil was not only fought with the ball at the players’ feet. On the sidelines, a constant war of words unfolded between Atlético de Madrid’s coach, Diego Pablo Simeone, and Real Madrid’s star, Vinicius Jr. What began as an exchange of glances ended in a verbal confrontation that has captured all the media’s attention.

The Controversial Phrase from "Cholo"

According to journalist Paco González on the COPE network, Movistar Plus cameras captured a moment of maximum tension. In the midst of tactical provocations aimed at unsettling the Brazilian, Simeone delivered a cutting phrase that has already gone viral: "Florentino is going to kick you out, remember that later." With these words, the Argentine coach sought to strike a nerve with the player, alluding to his future at the white club in an attempt to throw him off his game.

Throughout the entire first half, conversations and gestures between the two were constant. Simeone, true to his fiery style, directed much of his energy toward pressuring the winger from the touchline. This "personal match" adds a new chapter to the historic rivalry between the two, showing that the tension of the Madrid derby remains intact no matter where in the world they face each other.
