During the post-match press conference, the Argentine tactician sought explanations for the canceled shot by Julian Alvarez.

"I appeal to all present - raise your hand if you noticed that Julian touched the ball twice. Come on! No one? One more thing - I have never seen VAR review a shot in a penalty shootout," Simeone is quoted by BBC Sports.
