Felix initiated the scoring against his original club during the initial half, while Robert Lewandowski and Fermin Lopez each netted a goal in the latter half, propelling Barcelona to a commanding 3-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in a crucial La Liga encounter on Sunday.
Returning to Wanda Metropolitano, the Portuguese forward encountered a hostile reception. A faction of Atletico Madrid supporters, incensed by their former player, incited by setting fire to his Atletico shirt and disrespectfully spitting on his plaque within the stadium.
In response to the fans’ animosity, the 24-year-old addressed the media, stating, “The fans don’t know what happened inside, I understand them but I shouldn’t be seen as the bad guy. Even my relationship with Atleti players is very good. What they say from the outside is that I get along badly with my former Atleti teammates, and that’s not true, I was talking to Samuel Lino and Lemar, and everyone who passed by hugged me, they came to talk.”
The ex-Benfica player’s upcoming appearances will be with the Portugal national team, scheduled for two friendly encounters against Sweden and Slovenia on March 21 and March 26, respectively.
