Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez's 'Two-Touch PK' is hot.

Alvarez played as Atletico's second kicker in the second round of the European Champions League (UCL) round of 16 at Civitas Metropolitano in Madrid, Spain, on the 13th (Korea time).

Atletico, which lost 1-2 in the first leg of the round of 16, returned the game to square one with Liam Gallagher's goal in the first minute of the first half. In the 23rd minute of the second half, Real ace Vinicius Junior missed a penalty kick and went into extra time, and he turned Russian roulette after 30 minutes of extra time.




First kicker Kylian Mbappe (Real) and Alexander Seurlott (Atletico) exchanged goals one by one. The second kicker, Jude Bellingham of Real, scored. Alvarez put the ball on the penalty point with the penalty shootout score 1-2.

Alvarez lost his balance and slipped the moment he kicked, but he put the ball right into the top of the goal. However, the umpires suddenly canceled the score, pointing out Álvarez's 'two-touch'. It is judged that he touched it with his left foot, which was his stepping foot, and shot with his right foot. Tu Tuch is not recognized in penalty shootouts according to the regulations.

Atletico, which lost the lead due to Alvarez's miss, suffered elimination as fourth kicker Marcos Llorente missed, Antonio Rudiger scored and lost the penalty shootout score 2-4.

According to the soccer media 'Sportsbible', some fans who encounter this scene should be kicked back if there is a problem?" "It wasn't intentional." I was puzzled by the referee's decision.

Real man Steve McManaman said on TNT Sports that `Real had a great deal of luck today. Alvarez slipped in the shootout and was denied a score by an erratic kick. Wow. I could see why Atletico felt like an underdog. They did their best, but they were eliminated."

Atletico coach Diego Simeone expressed his anger. Coach Simeone said in a post-match press conference, `If anyone here has seen Alvarez hit a two-touch when he kicked a penalty, please raise your hand. Come on! No one raised their hands. Now, ask me the next question. I've never seen VAR review penalties in a penalty shootout."




Real, which reached the quarterfinals dramatically, will compete with Arsenal for the semifinals. Paris Saint-Germain will face Aston Villa and Kim Min-jae will face Inter Milan and Barcelona will face Borussia Dortmund.
