Gerard Pique Talks Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos Incident, Clasico Hand Gesture

Gerard Pique believes Sergio Ramos should have been sent off for catching Lionel Messi in the face with his arm in Saturday's 1-0 win for Barcelona against Real Madrid.

Ramos caught Messi shortly before half-time but escaped the incident without a booking, prompting Pique to make a talking-hand gesture to the crowd as the players walked off at the break:

Per Sport, Pique said:

"Leo had blood on his lip. It was aggressive [from Ramos] and it seemed a red card to me.

"I was referring to the fact they talk but sometimes referees go in their favour.
