Atletico Madrid star Koke insists he is 'PROUD' of his side's antics at end of Champions League tie - as he claims Man City drove Diego Simeone's team to 'MADNESS by throwing themselves on the ground and losing time'

Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke has insisted he is 'proud' of his side's antics following their Champions League exit and claimed that Manchester City's time-wasting tactics drove the Spanish side to the 'madness' at full time.

Diego Simeone's side drew 0-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday night, meaning they are knocked out of the competition 1-0 on aggregate after losing last week's first leg at the Etihad.

But the second leg descended into chaos as former City defender Stefan Savic followed Jack Grealish inside the tunnel and attacked the substitute after the full-time whistle.
