Central remained on the bench and followed referee Gil Manzano into the locker room at half-time with insults and complaints about Lewandowski being sent off.
Saying goodbye to the pomp and circumstance at the Camp Nou last weekend, with a lot of emotion, on Tuesday Gerard Piqué was once again the protagonist of the game that ended his career, but for negative reasons. The center was on the bench, and during the break he chased referee Jesús Gil Manzano and insulted him, for which he was sent off.
Barcelona went on hiatus after Osasuna in Pamplona, where a goal was allegedly preceded by a foul, and Lewandowski was sent off nine years later. Piqué was furious and, not knowing what to lose, rushed at the referee, who had already submitted his report.
“Did you see who was kicked out?” Piqué shot during the first attacks on Gilles Manzano. Gilles Manzano’s report continues: “In the 45th minute, player (3) Piqué Bernabéu Gerard was sent off for the following reason: after the first half, when he was already in the dressing room tunnel, for addressing me in the following terms: “Did you see which corner did you apply? You are the most fucking judge to date!”
Piqué was expelled at the time, but he did not relinquish his claim. “After the club delegate was informed of this player’s expulsion, he continued to repeat the same expressions described in the “Suctions” section as his club staff took him to the dressing room, addressing me in the following terms. : “P***** a disgrace, p***** who gave birth to you!”, the referee concludes the abstract.
It should be noted that even with one player less, Barcelona ended up turning the game around and still sits prominently ahead of La Liga.
