The Atletico Madrid striker was furious to be removed with the game tied at 1-1

Luis Suarez was furious to be taken off as Atletico Madrid were beaten 2-1 by Sevilla in LaLiga at the Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday evening.

The former Barcelona striker was substituted in the second half and the cameras from GOL television captured his anger at coach Diego Simeone's decision.

"Pelotudo de m..., siempre igual (F.....g idiot, always the same)," Suarez uttered as he walked around the pitch back towards the Atletico bench.

When he got there, his anger was still bubbling as he removed his shinpads and threw them to the floor. The Madrid press report that his words were directed at Simeone for the change with the game tied at 1-1.

Suarez is on a bad run in front of goal. It's now seven games without a goal, his longest drought since he arrived in Spain with Barça in the summer of 2014.

In addition, Atletico have now lost three league games in a row. It remains to be seen how Simeone has reacted or will react to Suarez's behaviour.
