    Remember this after the first leg…?

    Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has apologised for any offence caused by his celebrations against Juventus, but said: “I did it from the heart.”

    Simeone turned towards fans and grabbed his crotch after Jose Maria Gimenez opened the scoring in a 2-0 win.

    “It’s not a nice gesture, I admit, but I felt the need to do it,” he said.

    “I did it as a player at Lazio and I did it again to show our fans that we have cojones. I can only apologise if anyone was offended.”

    Just looking at replays of full-time in this game and Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated by doing the same.

    Ouch.
