Atletico Madrid captain Koke has said he stands by his side’s antics in the closing stages against Manchester City and pointed the blame at their Premier League opponents.
City stood up in the face of intense hostility at the Wanda Metropolitano to grind out a 0-0 draw which saw them progress 1-0 on aggregate.
The closing stages were marred by ugly scenes on the field, with both sets of teams embroiled in a bust-up.
