Julián Álvarez was "incredulous" after his penalty kick was disallowed in Atlético Madrid's Champions League round-of-16 defeat to Real Madrid .

A source close to the Madrid dressing room tells ESPN that the forward did not feel he'd touched the ball twice.

But footage appears to show the forward accepting the possibility that he touched it twice in conversation with teammates.

Real Madrid went through in a penalty shootout to face Arsenal in the quarterfinals.
