When Joao Felix made his return to Wanda Metropolitano Stadium with Barcelona, the fans of Atletico Madrid made their views and opinions about him abundantly obvious.
Felix made the decision to leave Atletico on loan and join the Catalan side in the summer, shortly after announcing his desire to play for Barcelona. As a result of his conduct, fans of Atletico Madrid set fire to his shirt and spat on his nametag at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium, which was the venue for the La Liga match between the two teams.
When Felix scored the first goal for Barcelona against his parent club, it was obvious that he was unmoved by the situation. When the two clubs played one other at Montjuic earlier in the season, the Portugal international scored against Diego Simeone’s team when they were competing against each other. In addition to Robert Lewandowski and Fermin Lopez scoring, Felix’s goal was the decisive factor in Barcelona’s 3-0 victory over Atletico of Madrid.
In the meanwhile, the former Benfica striker will be concentrating on the Portuguese national team as he, Roberto Martinez, and the rest of the group get ready for their next friendlies against Poland and Slovenia.
Felix has made it very obvious that he intends to remain at Barcelona following the conclusion of this season, and Simeone has also admitted that he is not well liked in Madrid.
