Julián Álvarez had a goal disallowed as Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid lost 4-0 against Paris Saint-Germain.
Álvarez scored a goal for Atletico Madrid which was later called off due to a foul before the goal but Simeone’s Atletico Madrid are now last place in their group. The reigning Champions League winners took a 2-0 lead before Julián Álvarez scored his goal which was disallowed.
Paris Saint-Germain would score two more goals for the win. Unless one of Botafogo and Seattle Sounders lose by a four goal margin, Atletico Madrid will be in last place in their group going up against Seattle Sounders on Thursday.
Rodrigo De Paul and Giuliano Simeone also started the match for Atletico Madrid while Ángel Correa was brought on as a substitute and Juan Musso was on the bench.
Carlos Tevez scored four goals for the World Aid XI team against England in a charity match.
Tevez had four goals for the World XI team at Old Trafford which raised £15 million for children’s charity Unicef. England took a 3-0 lead and Tevez received the ball inside the penalty area and would score from close range.
The 41 year old would score his second goal, a run towards the England back line and beat them all to score his team’s second goal of the match. With England leading 4-2, World Aid XI were awarded a free kick.
It was Tevez who took it and scored his third goal and his team’s third goal of the match. England would take a 4-3 lead but once more it was Tevez.
