Gerard Pique angry with penalty decision after Osasuna draw

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique was pretty unhappy to be penalised for handball during Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Osasuna.

The visitors had fought back from 1-0 down to lead 2-1 at El Sadar but had to settle for a point after Pique gave away a penalty and Roberto Torres scored from the spot.

Pique gave his view of the incident after the match and explained why he felt it was a harsh decision.

“I hit it with my hand, but we always have meetings at the start of the season and they talk about distance to the ball.
