Atletico Madrid fans burn Joao Felix shirt and vandalise his Metropolitano plaque

Atletico Madrid fans burned a Joao Felix shirt on top of his plaque at the Metropolitano yesterday.

Before kickoff, Atleti fans vandalised Felix's plaque and burned an Atletico shirt with his name over it.

Felix was returning to Atleti as a loan player with Barcelona, where his future remains undecided.

His name was also greeted with loud jeers when it was announced as part of the line-ups before kickoff.

However, he had the final say as Felix scored and Barca won 3-0 at the Metropolitano.
