Manchester City goalkeeper Scott Carson challenged Atletico Madrid defender Sime Vrsaljko to 'fight outside' during Wednesday night's brawl.

Images of the teams clashing in the tunnel after the match appear to show City's back-up keeper gesturing for Vrsaljko to meet him face-to-face and away from the melee, reports The Sun.

The former England international, 36, points his finger away from the crowd while staring at the Croatia star, 30.

Vrsaljko and fellow Atleti defender Stefan Savic were the main culprits as it kicked off at the end of the quarter-final clash.
