Atletico Madrid mad: Ibra got a yellow and Griezman a red for similar actions

Liverpool defeated Atletico Madrid 3-2 at Wanda Metropolitano , as Klopp's men take revenge on the Spanish side. Antoine Griezmann scored a brace, but the World Cup winner's most notable action came later. 

The former Barcelona striker got sent off. Griezmann jumped to get the ball but ended up kicking Roberto Firmino in the face. Atleti's forward got a straight red.

But Griezmann's kick was not the only one on Tuesday. A couple of minutes after Griezmann got sent off, in the other Group B game, Porto v AC Milan, the foul was recreated.

During the clash at Estadio do Dragao, Ibrahimovic got booked for a foul on Mbemba, which was exactly like Griemann's on Firmino. Two very similar actions, but two different punishments.

Atleti's supporters are mad and expressed their discontent on social media. They don't understand how those two actions are punished differently under the same set of rules.
