UEFA could ban Atletico Madrid star Stefan Savic for 'headbutt and hair pull' in Man City fight

UEFA are waiting for the referee's report before judging whether to launch disciplinary action against Atletico Madrid and Manchester City.

Unsavoury scenes marred the end of City's Champions League quarter final second leg at Atletico, which ended 0-0 to send City through 1-0 on aggregate.

Centre-back Felipe was sent off on 90 minutes for a second yellow card after kicking out at Phil Foden. In the aftermath of that incident, former Blues' defender Stefan Savic raced in to shout at Foden, prompting a large brawl between both sets of players and staff. TV footage appeared to show Savic moving his head towards Raheem Sterling — usually a red card offence — and later pulling Jack Grealish's hair.

Savic only escaped with a yellow card for his actions, and he was involved again as he continued his disagreement with Grealish in the tunnel at full time. As the pair walked towards the dressing room, another scuffle broke out involving Sime Vrsaljko, Aymeric Laporte and Kyle Walker among a number of other players, with police moving towards the players to break things up.

Now, UEFA will wait for the referee's report, as well as the report from the match observer, before deciding whether to issue any further punishments.

It's thought that neither the on-field officials or the Video Assistant Referees saw Savic's alleged headbutt or hair pull, so he could be the subject of his own disciplinary action. That would only happen if the referee indicates that he did not see the incidents.

Atletico were charged after the first leg at the Etihad for the 'discriminatory behaviour of its (Atletico’s) supporters' and throwing of objects by supporters.
